Gus Birthday

 
I made this card for my brother-in-laws 50th birthday!  I used Bugaboo's "Gus Birthday Old Fart" digi stamp and colored him with Copics.  The black paper is from Bazzill that I used my VersaMarker pen then put clear heat embossing powder on.  The black & white paper is from Paper Studio Black & White 4.5" X 6.5" pad and the red is from my stash.  I'm not sure where the 50 sentiment is from but it was a freebie.

The Big Guy Grilling

 
I made this card for my brother for his birthday (he's into grilling)!  I used Mo Manning's "Big Guy Grilling" digi stamp and colored him with Copics.  The background paper is from my stash and the other papers are from Best Creations, Inc. Barbeque 6x6 Glitter Paper Pad.  My first attempt at paper piercing was successful (in my opinion!)  I cut the cloud out with my Silhouette and the "Happy Birthday" was made on my computer.  The brads are also from my stash.
