Best Wishes

Today I am sharing the card I made for my boss for his birthday this week.  It is nothing really fancy, but I like the bright colors.  I always struggle to make guy cards -- no flowers!  LOL.  The inside of the card said, "for a happy and blessed birthday."

Here's how it was made:

Size:  A2
Cardstock:  DCWV, Bazzill and Core'dinations
Patterned Papers:  DCWV Dots, Stripes and Plaids mat stack
Best Wishes:  3 Birds on Parade Cricut cartridge cut at 2"
White and black labels behind sentiment:  Nestabilities dies
Banner:  Martha Stewart Seasonal Cake Art Cricut cartridge, along with white circles at the top of the swags.  (Has anyone else noticed that when you cut the circles, the book shows they have stars cut out of the centers, but the stars do not cut?)  The stars that are on my card are a punch (with Stickles added).
Yellow scalloped border:  EKSuccess border punch
Green glitter gems:  From my stash



If you like my work and want me to continue to post, please let me know!  Thanks!
