Today is Shane’s birthday. He’s 12. I can’t believe he’s 12. The time has flown by!
Shane was my SURPRISE baby. And I have to tell you - he has changed my life in so many ways. My boys are my greatest accomplishments in my life. They truly are my everything and I am so blessed to have 2 such wonderful young men in my life.
There are 12 years between Shane and Andrew. Now, that doesn’t sound like much, but consider this – Shane started kindergarten the same year Andrew was a senior. And my 2 boys are so totally different – polar opposites. But I wouldn’t trade them for the world, most days! LOL.
Ok, enough about my boys – On to today’s card.

So, this card is for Shane’s birthday. My base is Sahara Sand. I used Basic Black, Soft Suede and Very Vanilla. I distressed my edges on all of my layers with my Heidi Swap Edge Distresser.
I LOVE this little tool. I got mine at Hobby Lobby for $0.99. When I bought it, I figured if I didn’t like it, I wouldn’t be out much. But I love it and own 2 - it really reminds me of a little Pac Man.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful and blessed day!
