Dad's Birthday Card/Altered Top Note Die

I created the shape by rotating the top note die cut 90 degrees after the initial cut. Then I masked the white area and sponged.

Stamps: Lovely Letters, retired hostess set
Ink: Night of Navy, Brocade Blue
Paper: Night of Navy, WW
Accessories: sponges, stamp-a-ma-jig, top note die, big shot

My Husband's Birthday Card

The inside reads: Thanks for always "supporting" us. You deserve the best birthday! However, someone suggested "You deserve the breast birthday." That would have worked too. Brian likes my cards, but I can never make one that is truly masculine and shows off my card-making talents. I really like this one. I didn't come up with the idea, I found it online.

Enjoy!

Build-A-Bear

Introducing the new Build-A-Bear stamp sets from Stampin UP! I did NOT think I would like these stamps, but I thought they would make great cards. I really like them now because I love to color. The set includes a boy and girl bear with accessories: party hat, bag, flower, and balloon. I'll post more photos soon.

(One more thing: The Whisper White card stock was cut using the top note punch and big shot machine. After cutting the top note, turn the paper 90 degrees and run through the machine again.)
