So this card is also to celebrate your birthday, The beer mug that the bear is holding has enough in it for TWO. Smile...
Happy Birthday, Darnell, and I hope by now, you have received the card that I put in the Mail for you.
The card that I made for my brother was made using a 3d sheet that I purchased . It's Wellington and I believe the sheet is distributed by doccrafts. I purchased mine locally in a scrap book store.
For my background I used Designer paper from Die cuts with a View, stamped my birthday greeting with a stamp from Katie & Co. Used Versamark and white embossing powder from Wow, added dimensionals to pop up my image, and some twine.
And Darnell...
"Although I can't wish you a happy birthday in person, I will spend the whole day with happy thoughts of you."
