Jamie's 9th Birthday

Today is my nephew, Jamie's birthday and he is nine. Oh what to do for a nine year old boy who is mad on history. Nicked one of my Sister-In-Law's photos from Facebook of their recent holiday in Northumberland and altered it on Photoshop, printed it onto photographic paper and then added alchohol inks, finished with trying to age it a bit with black StazOn around the edges and across the image itself. It is a bit different I know and was worried that he wouldn't like it, but have just received a phone call from Jamie to say that he has received it and he says "it's cool"....so got my approval there then, phew....

thanks for Jamie's card - like you said it is different but it is also fantastic. As soon as Jamie took it out the envelope he was saying 'cool'. (my .mum was well impressed with it too for the record). Have had a great day, Neil baked a cake and we've watched Harry Potter 2 on DVD and played games together - really chilled out day which has been good as the weather is pants here. Hopefully tomorrow will be better weather as we are meant to be at the beach with friends for a birthday picnic so fingers crossed. Thanks again xx
