Happy Birthday little champion!!

Good morning,
another day, another work; this time I made a combo between a card and a bookmark. A girl asked me these two coordinated creations for her son's birthday, this little boy plays basketball and he totally loves it (I'm an ex-player too, so I can understand his passion), so why don't create something about this sport?!? The little champion is going to celebrate his 8th year in this world, I think this is an important age, so we must celebrate it with joy and happiness; I decided to use the famous colours of basket: orange, black and brown, and seen that we are in Fall period, I was so ispiring from this colours! A lot of buttons and star complete the scene... for a brilliant and shining career in this sport!

Buondì,
un altro giorno, un altro lavoro; questa volta ho fatto una combo tra una card e un segnalibro. Una ragazza mi ha chiesto queste due creazioni coordinat per il compleanno di suo figlio, il piccolo gioca a basket e ne è totalmente innamorato (sono anche io una ex-giocatrice, quindi posso comprendere la sua passione), così perchè non creare qualcosa attorno a questo sport?!? Il piccolo campione dovrà festeggiare il suo ottavo anno in questo mondo, penso che questa sia un'età importante, quindi dobbiamo festeggiarla in grande, con gioia e felicità; ho decido di usare i famosi colori del basket: arancione, nero e marrone, e visto che siamo nel periodo autunnale, sono stata molto ispirata da questi colori! Tanti bottoni e stelle completano il tutto... per una carriera brillante e splendente in questo sport!

For my english friend : the sentiment is in italian language,
traducing it's written "HAPPY BIRTHDAY LITTLE CHAMPION!"
