This birthday card is very special to me, my son Jacob made it for me...Jacob is a minimalist in every way and I am so touched that he went to this trouble. In saying that I have to add that Jacob's original card came with just the image on it and then when he realised I was uploading them he thought he should colour it in...yesterday he came home and so excitedly asked 'how many comments did I get'...shame on me...I hadn't uploaded it....so I told him I would do it today....
This morning, with some encouragement from his little sister and I, he stuck the ricrac and flowers on...but in reality...the card from his heart was the image on the card....and that touched mine...but...the cardmaker in me.....tsk:tsk!!!
So thank you for looking and if you would like to leave an encouraging comment for Jacob, I know he will be thrilled!! Thank you for looking!

Hi Jacob,
I'm Terri from Seattle, Washington, USA. I saw your card here and loved it! I have a pig collection so I love the image you chose of the pig with hogs and kisses. I'm also a mom, so I love that you made a card for your mom!
Way to go Dude!!!
