    Birthday fox and bear Reindeer tag

    This card was created for my daughter’s boyfriend who just happened to have a birthday yesterday.  He loves the outdoors and I thought this card would be perfect for him.  I used distressed ink on watercolor paper I was trying to make a sunset with the colors.  I love how the fox and bear are peeking out of the tree like they are saying surprise.

    Birthday Screen card and Fabulous bow Birthday

    Birthday screen card. What the heck is that.

    For those of you that do not know what it is, think about the old fashioned divider curtains that people used to change clothes behind or to separate their rooms.

    I made this card into a fun little birthday card.  Flowers on top and balloons and party hats on the inside.

    Now for my second card I wanted the recipient to ooh and ahh over the big fluffy bow.  This was a challenge card where you could only use three colors, gray, peach and light green.  I took some of the gray paper and added it to the inside on the bottom.
