Wetlands Birthday

Good morning, Friends! Well, my son is home again today :( His allergies are still really bad. He has had quite a time with them since Sunday. I do hope he gets better soon!! I hate it when he's sick but I hate it more when he falls behind in school! And Thursday is Parent/Teacher conferences. He only has 6 more weeks of school. Hopefully today he will start to feel much better…

For today's card I borrowed a set from my friend Emily. I only made two cards with it but it is a really great set! I love it! And I may have to put it on my next order! This card didn't turn out quite like I had planned but it will work.

• Card base is Crumb Cake
• On a piece of Naturals Ivory, stamp the wheat stalk from Wetlands in Crushed Curry
• On a scrap piece of Naturals Ivory, stamp the goose in black StazOn and color him with a blender pen and Crumb Cake, Chocolate Chip, Always Artichoke and Crushed Curry markers(I also used a white chalk marker for the spot on his neck)
• Cut out the goose and grass and adhere to panel with dimensionals
• Adhere this panel to a piece of Chocolate Chip
• Wrap some linen thread around panel three times and then adhere to card with dimensionals
• Use the Decorative Label punch to punch the shape from Chocolate Chip and adhere to card with dimensionals
• Stamp the greeting in black StazOn onto Naturals Ivory and punch out with the oval punch then adhere to label

I thought it made for a great masculine card! Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!
