A Blue-Green Happy Birthday

It has been a very busy week for me. My dear sister's big birthday (did you see what I've made for her? I just love it!) and then I had my son's birthday (it's the same day....). yesterday we had his party with his friends from school, and I'm so exhausted, but he enjoyed so much! he got a lot of presents, and all evening he and his little brother opened them and played with the new games. it was really touching to see their joy and how they played together.
I've made this card for one of our family's friends, to give him on his coming B-day. Since it was
made for a boy- no flowers, no lace, no sparkle or glitter... LOL. but is sure fitts the spring  - we are having such a warm wheather here!
This card is my DT card for simple doodles - a new challenge starting: show a little green, and I hope to see you all there. note that you can use any digi stamp, but if you have a simple doodles' one - we would love to see them (you also have some lovely freebie there)!
The image is a from simple doodles and it is perfect for paper piecing (no, Trish, I did not mix the challenges, I do know that the paper piecing challenge is closed now... LOL).
For the background I tore dp, since that is what Pam asked over 365 cards (Gloria & Rose - see what a gooooooood girl I am? no cheating... halo, halo, where is my halo?...LOL)
The card has a naive look and I like the outcome. what about you?

I'm entering the card to the following challenges:
show a little green - #13 simple doodles
lovely landscape - day 11 365 cards
paper piecing - #5 cards for men
p is paper piecing - abc challenge
kids theme  delightful sketches
boys only - #38 double dutch
something for a child - #16 sweet stampin
no flowers - #32 die cuts dreams

Thank you for stopping by! have a lovely weekend.

השבוע הזה היה מאד עמוס עבורי. יום ההולדת של אחותי, ואחריו יום ההולדת של הגדול, ואתמול המסיבה עם החברים מביה"ס. אני מותשת....
בכרטיס הזה השתמשתי בטכניקה של פייפרפיסינג paper piecing. לצורך זה השתמשתי בחותמת דיגיטלית מאד פשוטה, וזה מקל על הגזירה וההדבקה. בשביל הרקע קרעתי כמה ניירות מדוגמים בגוונים שהתאימו לי. וזהו. כרטיס פשוט, בלי פרחים, בלי תחרות, בלי גליטר ונצנצים. כרטיס עבור בן :).
