21st Birthday #2

***************

From me to dear grandson.
Another 8x8" card and this took me all day to make like the last one.  This is totally different to what I had in mind but I like it better than the project I had planned
I recently acquired some flimsy gold paper and glued it to a piece of card to make the numbers

Ingredients
Hand cut big gold numbers embossed with CB folder
Computer generated greeting scroll
Corners - SB lattice accents
Brads
Star punch
DP unknown/forgotten, had it printed off for a while
