August birthdays

For my grandson who will be 16 this year. He loves coffee!

I drew the coffee cup, matted and attached to the card with foam dots. Real coffee beans are attached below.

This is my rendition of the ideas found in the July/August Paper Crafts magazine. This card not only says to recycle, etc. but it actually is made from several recycled items. The letters are cut from magazines and the tree is cut from a saved card. Although the wood grain is "new" patterened paper it fits with the theme.

The inside says....It was a good age why not reuse it.

I have made this card before in the past. I think it turns out well. I saved the front of a card to "copy". The top is the card front and the bottom one is mine. I hand cut the peices.
