Some people enjoy the outdoors and being with nature to clear their heads, for others its just a great getaway. I made this card to represent that same idea of being outdoors. This would make a great card for any male.

Although this stamp was a winter scene I changed the roof top to be one of those tin roofs and colored everything to look like a summer day.  I used rustic colors and patterned plaid paper for the feel of an old cabin.  The inside is stamped with a silhouette of a man and his dog on a boat. The sentiment says,”It’s your birthday relax and enjoy.”

This is such a cute guy that I thought it would make a great birthday card for my nieces and nephews.

I added some designer paper for the little guy to balance on and cut out a scallop circle. I then popped up the circle with dimensionals.  I stamped It’s birthday time and attached it to the center of the otter and added a little party hat on his head.

For the inside I stamped, ” Hoping your birthday is filled with all the best things.”

I made this card for my husband for Valentine’s Day and forgot to post it. The first photo shows the card closed.  For the second photo you can see the card opened into a z-fold card and the last photo shows the envelope I made to go with the card. I added some ink to the beard and die cut the rest of the card out.
