You Rock

a few months ago my husband & older son built a Bass Guitar, my son designed the body himself, chose the paint color & wanted snakeskin graphics on it... while I'm not that good of an artist to draw snakeskin on this stamp, I did go with orange for my boy.


Sketch is from Tuesday Morning Sketches #184

  4. How fun these are -- you did a great job on the cards -- the burst stamp behind the guitar player is perfect. Thanks for sharing your picture of your son with that fantastic guitar -- the guys did a great job on the guitar too.

  10. What a great post! These cards are just terrific and will be perfect for the boys. I find making cards for teen boys particularly difficult to do. I predict these will be snatched right up by some heroes with boys.
