I had a lovely friends 40th birthday this weekend, now I’ve known him since we went through university 23 years ago and to be honest – apart from his family which he absolutely adores, his two big loves in life have always been fishing and beer….so the choice of card was sort of easy really as I made him a fish card last year! It’s a really simple card, but it was made with love!
The background embossing folder is from Sale-a-bration – decorative dots, which will be available in the next annual catalogue, but for the next 24 hours you can get it for FREE with a qualifying Sale-a-bration order. The gold numbers were cut using the Typeset Alphabet on gold foil card stock – loving the silver and gold foil, a little bit really adds that special something to a card. The corners of the mug and the stripes of So Saffron card stock were rounded using my Envelope Punch Board as that was on my desk and the corner rounder was in the other room (yep I’m a lazy crafter).
