Cute Card Thursday #60

This is my card made for Cute Card Thursday Challenge which this week is to use letters or numbers on your project.

I made this card for my nephew's birthday so added his name and age.  Gave promarkers a rest again and used pencils as wanted a more muted look.  I decorated the inside with scraps too.
