My son, who grew up with three older sisters and one younger sister, will be celebrating his birthday this week on March 1st. Since he was a teenager he has been interested and influenced by Asian combat, design and furnishings. He even attempted making a Bonsai tree. Recently I purchased the Pagoda cartridge and obtained Asian cuttlebug folders. What would be more fitting than to make him a birthday card with an Asian motif. The 5.25 X 6.25 card was designed using the Gypsy and the pieces were cut using the Cricut Expression.
