Stubby's 50th Birthday


My oldest brother turns the BIG 5-0 next week and this is the card I made for him.  This gem is Gus from Bugaboo Stamps and is called Gus Birthday - Over The Hill.  I imported him into Silhouette Studio so I could wrap the sentiment around him.  I then printed him out, colored with copics, cut out with SB large circle die, and matted with SB large scalloped die.  I used glossy accents on his glasses, black soot distress ink by Tim Holtz, and the 50 is from The Paper Studio.  DP are from The Paper Studio Black and White pad and blue cs is from The Paper Studio brights textured pad.  The layout is for Stella Says Sketch #410.

Hubby's Father's Day Card



Popping in for a quick challenge post.  This is my hubby's Father's Day card.  My inspiration came for one I saw on Pinterest.  I'm not sure where the beer mugs are from, but they are colored with copics, I heat set puffy velvet fabric marker for the foam, and glossy accents on the mugs.  Brown cs from my stash, particle board paper from The Paper Studio, and beer paper from Pinterest.  I used my sewing machine to zig zag around the paper, computer generated sentiment, button brad from my stash, dark brown ribbon by Offray, and Tim Holtz walnut distress ink.
