i need help re- teenager's birthday.

[mopinko]

ok, it is the end of her teenage- she turns 20 tomorrow. in a lot of ways she is still a kid, but feels like 20 is getting old!?
here's what i need- i want to make her a birthday card, like in photoshop, but i am exhausted right now, and couldn't be funny to save my soul.
so how about a little brainstorming here?
here are a few factoids about her- she has about 20 piercings and a lot of tattoos. her hair color changes regularly, although it is now pretty much her actual color, as opposed to purple. she has a boyfriend that the hubby and i refer to as eddie haskell. she was a lot of trouble to raise, but she is turning out to be a great person. she works for a doggie day care, and is a big animal lover (hence the bf?)
so, any ideas?

1. A donation in her name to the local animal shelter?n/t

2. hmm

there could be something humorous in the adage that dogs look like their owners, but her appearance is so changeable that she would have to have a lot of dogs? You could show dogs trying on wigs, tattoos, etc. to try to look like her.

Crazy?

3. I like that idea.

Either that or one dog, without too much fur, that could be photoshopped to have multiple piercings and the fur on it's head dyed purple. :thumbsup:

4. Do you have any of her old kid drawings of herself (or kid photo) ?

You could do a Then & Now b-day card, with pictures side by side, and inside write "Who Knew?".

Found this little 20th b-day gem:

Live as long as you may. The first twenty years are the longest half of your life.

5. Maybe a photoshop of the old Coppertone baby.

Have the dog pulling down the britches to expose a tattoo on her heine. Maybe a saying like instant adult, just add ink/water/hair dye. Maybe even color the little girl's hair purple with a nose piercing.

This is the picture I'm thinking of:


Good luck!!
