Now speaking of my hubby - today is his 40th Birthday!!!! Happy Birthday Matthew!!!!! Mwah!!! Of course I had to make him a card - so today's card is a Masculine 40th Birthday Card!!!
I started with a base of Very Vanilla and layered with some dark green bazzill (pretending to be Always Artichoke that I have realised I'm out of) and then Soft Sky and some retired SU Le Jardin DSP. The middle panel is more dark green that I punched around the edges using the Fiskars Upper Crest Border Punch and layered with more Very Vanilla and more Le Jardin DSP. I then made a frame out of some Very Vanilla by using two sizes of the Label 3 dies to cut and emboss. Finally I stamped the numbers in Always Artichoke using SU's retired Headline Numbers, cut them out and popped them up on foam tape.
I'm happy to say that he liked his card!!! (Mum and Scoob, he liked yours too!! :) )
Stamps - Headline Numbers
Paper - Very Vanilla, Dark Green Bazzill, Soft Sky, Le Jardin DSP
Ink - Always Artichoke

Very cool frame around the 40... happy Birthday to your DH. And you don't WHAT... Drink coffee... Really??? Ack... I have one cup a morning, my DH got me hooked on the liquid creamer years ago and I LOVE it. You are a brave woman. hee hee
What a wonderful card for your hubby. Wish him a happy birthday and tell him the 40s are great :D (I've broken them in for him LOL). Love how you framed the 40 with the nestie and your DPs are great. I don't drink caffeinated coffee any more (except under dire circumstances and then boy does it work!) but must say I love the taste of it.
Beautiful coffee basket Kathy - happy BD to your DH.
