Hello Friend!...

Hi All,

One of my guy friends celebrated a birthday last week.

I noticed that I tend to do a lot of brown/ burgundy for my masculine cards, 

but I wanted this one to be cheerful so I used this designer paper from this 
paper stack by
My Mind's Eye - Fine & Dandy Boy. 

The bird stamp is one I've had since I started stamping back in 2009.

Bloom - Paper Artsy.

I've been looking for a cloud stamp like this one for along time and 

finally found this one at Michael's.

Snag'em Stamps Happy Camper collection - Imaginisce. 
Only $1.50

The other sentiments are from various sets here and there.

On the inside it says 'Happy Birdy to you'.

My friend like the card and he had a happy birthday.

Thanks for stoppin' by...

Hi All,

I thought I would share this with you.

I had this image colour up for a few months now,

but I just made a card with it this past week.

Glamour Girl Annette - Kraftin' Kimmie

Check out this technique I used for the background,

Gina K. Using up Scraps

The sentiment I used is from a set called Simple Thoughts,

the frame is from Stampin' Up's Four Frames

and I used the Curved Rectangles from Spellbinders.
