The front of the card was pretty simple--a couple of large die-cut numbers and a computer-generated sentiment.
This is the inside of the card. It was cut on my Silhouette using Design #65331 from the Silhouette Design Store. I've used this cut before, and it has always turned out great.
To give this card a little extra pizzazz, I backed each of the letter cut-outs with packing tape and then sprinkled glitter on the front of each letter. It adds just a little sparkle, and the light still comes through.
I've had to make lots of masculine birthday cards in the past couple of months. With all the practice I've had, you'd think male cards would be a breeze--but they're not. I always struggle to come up with fun or meaningful ideas.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and remember to laugh--a little or a lot--every day.
