Here is a Birthday card I made for Stevie’s 21st Birthday using patterns that are called Zentangles. I love to doodle and this is a very easy way to take repetitive patterns and turn them into works of art. There are plenty of websites you can check out if you would like to give it…

What a great time we had celebrating Stevie’s 21st birthday, when I asked him earlier in the week what he wanted to do for his birthday he texted me ” Thrift store shopping and dinner” he could have asked for anything and that was his simple request.
