That’s how old Red is as of yesterday. I wasn’t going to post till later since he does check in here, but I know he’s on his way over, so I can post it now and he won’t see it!

Mike chose colors and I finally got to use some of my new stamps. The tab pulls up to reveal a cool double slider. This kind of card was shared on the cruise Beate dragged me on (wink wink) last spring, and after prepping a bunch of them for a stamp day that spring, I pushed the instructions WAY out of my head. Since guys tend to like cards with a little extra, I thought it would be cool for a birthday card. Tutorial can be found here but once you make one, you won’t need ’em anymore!

Wow, great colors and I love how you make it look masculine using a set “I” think of being more feminine. 😉
