Super CAS card...

Whenever we have an electrical problem at my house, we call on my brother to come and fix it. And he always obliges!!! I saw a fun card on Pinterest that I thought would be perfect for his next birthday.

Since it is all white, it was really hard to get a good picture of it.

For my outlets, I cut two circles and then sliced off the top and bottom of each one.

I used a ribbon slot punch tool that I've had for years to make the oval(ish) openings in my outlet. If I would have thought more about it ahead of time, I would have made one slot longer than the other so that it looks more like a modern outlet. Oh well...there's always a next time. A 1/8" hole punch made the little round openings.

I put some light gray cardstock behind the openings to make them a little more pronounced.

Last year at the Scrapbook Expo I bought some little screw-head brads and used one of them on this card.

My sentiment on the inside is my own and is computer-generated.

This card really doesn't look like much in the photos, but I actually really like it IRL. I think my brother will like it, too.

I've been working on the Mother's Day baskets that I mentioned in my last post. I hope to have some photos to share with you soon. They've been super fun to put together, and I think they look pretty appealing. I sure hope they sell! My husband said that maybe he ought to go to the thrift store and buy one for ME for Mother's Day. I just gave him "the look" that silently says, "Don't you dare!"  He he

Thanks so much for stopping by, and remember to laugh--a little or a lot--every day.
