Another boys 3d birthday card

My youngest son is 7 on Saturday, so here is another 3d 'gadget' card i've made him. I've chosen to do this as he will be getting a silver PSP for his birthday.

As usual, I found the image on the internet, printed it out twice, cut around one to make the base and then painstakingly cut out each of the buttons individually and stuck them over the top of the base image with 3d pads. As most PSPs are shiny I have, this time, printed out the images on glossy photo paper, which has proved a nightmare for fingerprints! I printed the sentiment on the PC and just glued it straight onto the black screen.

I think it is really cool, and almost as good as the xbox controller one I did for a friends son a few weeks ago. Jack is sure to love it.
