I am entering this card in two challenges. Practical Scrappers whose challenge is using Stamps and Unscripted Sketches. First a little bit about this silly looking card... My husband deployed Yesterday to Afghanistan. His birthday is September 29th. Since he is in another country I will need to send it prior. Anywho We were watching Family Guy (I hate the show, but my husband thinks it's hilarious!) They had an episode where Peter sang Bird is the word, the whole show! Good lord it was annoying. It took me two days to put this card together and over and over in my head I could hear it Bird Bird Bird, Bird is the word.... AAGGGHHH! (The things I do for love lol) My inspiration for this card was that show. When he is away I like to make him cards that have subliminal messages in them. Things from our past I guess you could say. The inside of the card says " Happy BIRDday Tweatheart". This is the first time I have used my Close to my heart Owl stamps. I've had them a couple months now. I think it came out ok. Not one of my best, but I put alot of thought into making it.
P.S. This is my first time entering a challenge for both of these sites!

ReplyDeleteFirst of all thank you for the sacrifices not just your husband is giving but you as well... I haven't decided if I like the family guy or not I hate the dad's chin it looks like man parts! I love your card though for its quality and the story behind it. Beth
