CHRISTMAS IN AFGHANISTAN

Hi Everyone!

I know, I know Christmas is over, but I wasn't able to share this with you before.  This is the card I made for my oldest (21).  He was in Afghanistan (Air Force) during Christmas, so I thought this was a cute idea.  I'm happy to say he just got back in the States now!!!  I'm so thankful that he is safe & sound, just wish he was home with me!!!  Sounds like he may be able to come for a visit in March for my Birthday....soooo excited!!! It will be a year in March since I last saw him. :(

He loves to play the guitar, both acoustic and electric.  Last year when he was in Japan I sent him a card with a snowman playing guitar, so I thought I'd keep the tradition up using a guitar in his card.  It didn't turn out as well as I had wanted, but I'm still very happy with it and he liked it, and  that's all that matters! :)  Would love to hear what you all think!!!

Supplies:

Carts~PDDU (Camel, Santa's Bag and Reindeer Antlers)

            Rock Princess (Guitar)

            Gypsy Wanderings (Sun)

I took scrap paper, sprayed it with water and crumbled it up layering it to look like sand drifts and used MS gold glitter on top. I also used red puff paint for Ruddy's nose.

Gilby and I love comments...his tail just wags away when he sees me smile!!!
