This Have A Rocking Birthday card that I am sharing today is one that I made for my son’s 15th birthday.

He plays the drums ( shakes the house) and the guitar so the images from Twistoon were just perfect.

Here is a tutorial on how I created this card.

You will need :

A4 White Card

From the cd choose and print three papers.

For the card base, cut the A4 white card to measure 17 cms, keeping the length the same.
