My Favorite Card of 2012

Believe it or not but I have never shared my favorite card I made in 2012! How could that happen? Honestly, I don't know but here it is:

It looks similar to a baby card I made  back in May last year, just that this one is for a boy's first birthday. The parents (dear friends) asked me to make one, since they don't do crafts themselves but appreciate handmade. Their idea is it to write their son a special message each year for his birthday. Cute, right? I love it and I can't wait to make this year's - though that means that Mister Tiny is growing at rocket speed and we all want to keep him "as is". Has anyone found a solution for this yet? ;-)
