Hoping your birthday is... beyond measure

 

On the 12th of this month is my brother-in-law's birthday.  He is a carpenter by trade.  Because of this fact, I came up with this idea.  I made an easel card, that consists of tape measures, different fonts, a place for a gift card, wood veneer and several brads.   Of course, we all know the screw heads are a construction item, I added the little brads to the "birthday" to make it look like they were nailed on.  The "hoping" and "beyond" letter fonts reminded me of epoxy.   And of course, carpenters use wood.  Even the paper has a wood design.

This card is for my Uncle Phillip and his wife Kathy.  They did so much for me during the time I was with my mother.  

This card combines a sketch from 365cards and a challenge from Pile it on challenge.  For PIO I figured the torn note pad did the trick, along with the stick pin at the top of it (school supplies, right?)  The people are corrugated, and there is wood veneer as well.

Thanks for looking :)

Birthday cupcakes

This card is for a friend of mine that has a birthday this week.  I looked at the Mojo Monday sketch earlier in the week but didn't have time to start anything at that time.  Pile it on challenge was bling, which is not a problem to add to any feminine card.  And lastly when 365 cards had a "finish in 15" I had been thinking about it enough (with no time to actually do it) that all my ideas were all worked out, so 15 minutes was easy. I used the designer cupcake paper.  I also used some shimmer pink and shimmer vanilla paper.  Some plain brown paper was added in there for good measure.  I used an embossing folder for the cupcakes on the pink shimmer.  I used a total of 3 stamps on the vanilla shimmer paper, the darling cupcake, the sentiment, and then the border (stamped 4 times around the edges).  I added a burlap flower with a gemstone.  Done!
