Yes, I did actually make a card to go along with my ramblings today! I snuck it into his luggage right before he left so he would get it when he was unpacking in the hotel later. He did & said he loved it!
I made this card in a super hurry so it doesn't have all the detail I normally put in my cards. The card base is Kraft cardstock, cut at 5" with my Cricut Expression & Gypsy, from the "Campin' Critters" cartridge (pg. 65). I cut the oval background layer using some cloud paper from a Debbie Mumm paper pack. The rest of the card was done with my Imagine, using the same cartridge & same page. For the colors I used the color pallette from the "Snapshot: Nature" cartridge. The desert images were cut at 3.2" (relative size). I inked most of the edges with some Martha Stewart ink in "Chocolate". The flag & ball are stickers from Sandylion.
Last but certainly not least, the sentiment is from the Scrappy Moms Stamps set called "Raining Cats & Dogs". Obviously this set can be used for more than just dogs & cats! All of her stamp sets are very versatile. To purchase or check out this stamp set, or any of her other fabulous stamp sets & products, click HERE!
I decided at the last minute to make this my 2nd entry in the Paper Playtime "For The Guys" challenge. To see the challenge details & play along click HERE.
Thanks for stopping by today & listening to my ramblings! :)
super cute card!I do the same thing for the hubs when he goes out of town! How funny! I bet you get quite a concert at night with all the frogs! I am soo green right now!
ReplyDeleteLol, green with envy & frogs are green....very cute! I love our frog concerts but it would seriously be quieter if we lived right next to the freeway! Somehow it's way easier to sleep when the noise comes from nature & isn't man made. I'm not surprised you do that for your hubz too - it's just another thing we have in common!
DeleteThis is so adorable and creative!! I love the quote...so perfect for the card!! Thanks so much for playing along at Paper Playtime!!
