Light the Candles!

I made this for a friend who will be 60 this week (and I'm making another for my hubby).  His "real" card can be found Here.  But knowing him, he'll like this funny card better.  

The stamps are from Art Impressions -- the paper is from Stamping Up.  Some stickles on the candles and around the speech bubble.  

I was inspired by the following blogs:

1. Colour Q Blog

2. Tuesday Morning Sketches - I had to modify the sketch a bit -- only one strip of pattern paper -- I tried two strips, but it did not look right.  And I put the sentiment in the top left corner, not the bottom right.  

3. Seize the Birthday - Anything Goes

Thanks for stopping by!

Big Six Oh!

For my hubby who is finally joining the 60's !
Life has been very busy - so card-making has taken a back seat.  I miss my creative time.  But I had to really make time to create for my man's big birthday!!

This was an easy to create shaker card -- the paper is from Stamping Up -- the 60th dies are from PTI.  I'm not sure which company the Happy Birthday is from.

I was inspired by the following challenges.

1. Moving Along with the Times - use dies - numbers or letter

2. Seize the Birthday

 

3. Stampin Royalty - Masculine projects

4. Hand Stamped Sentiments - Color Challenge

5. Muse Card Club Challenge

Thank you so much for stopping by to take a look.
