I showed bespectacled Uncle Larry with an ice cream cone in his hand. There is also a bowl of ice cream behind him. I added some bushes in the background, some gardening tools and a plant. An aeroplane represents his love of travel. Finally, a big red number 70 marks his age.
"It's perfect!" my customer said.

I love Uncle Larry's card. The bright blue glasses and ice cream tell me his a fun guy.
I'm going to use the 'more glasses than Elton John' comment with R. He has about 10 different pairs of varying strengths for different jobs, and he can never find the one he wants. I, on the other hand, have 1 pair of varifocals, which are either on my face or on the coffee table, so you can imagine my lack of patience!
The card, as always, is beautiful. xx
The garden tools are excellent. Instead of assuming the garden grows itself, the tools show Larry actually gets down on his knees and labours.
I love your cards, they really showcase the occasion! Visiting from #MMBC! Have a great week ahead, Melynda @scratchmadefood!
How cool! I chuckled at the customer's description of her uncle. It's great though to be active into older age.
...I hope that Uncle Larry had a wonderful day and I hope that you will have a wonderful week.
What a fab card and a fun recipient. I love the sound of all of his glasses! x
That is fabulous! He sounds like a really fun guy.
Uncle Larry sounds just like my brother, only a little bit younger, they have a lot in common. I love your detailed card, I can imagine a very happy Uncle Larry on his birthday.
Such a fun card, I'm sure Uncle Larry could not have loved his card more.
The card made me smile- such fun! Love all the miniature details that represent Uncle Larry!
