Birthday Cards

I am going to be needing some birthday cards in the next couple of months that are suitable to give to a man. I made these two cards using the same paper by Tinkering Ink that I got Saturday at Scrapbook Attic. I just love the color combination on the paper. The button trim on each is by Sassafras and these also are part of my Saturday shopping spree.


I cut the beige and brown squares on my Cricut and the sentiment was stamped with a Clear Expressions stamp. I embossed the dark brown square with the Swiss Dots embossing folder.

The tag was cut on my Cricut with a dark brown shadow. I used the same Clear Expressions stamp for the sentiment. Then I topped it off with brown dotted grosgrain ribbon trim.

I'm quite pleased with the way each card turned out.

Luck, love and laughter,

Judy
