I needed birthday cards for my brother-in-law and my dad. Man cards are always tricky, and I was flipping through all my Cricut handbooks with no inspiration when my husband walked in. He was actually the one who chose the image I used, the snowman from Smiley Cards. The sketch came from
Die Cuttin' Divas. I do have to confess a goof, though. I cut out my images and shut my Gypsy off without saving. Usually I make sure everything is good before doing that, but of course not this time. As I went to put my snowmen together, I realized that I must have chosen the shadow image for the base. His hat and other accessories are too small! I didn't want to start over at this point though, so I just went with it, hoping it looks like I did that on purpose! The oval is from A Child's Year (It was a tag, but I removed the little hole with my Gypsy). I ran it through my Cuttlebug Snowflakes folder. The little glittery snowflakes in the upper corners were leftover from my
Christmas cards, so they are actually the center of the O from the word JOY from Create a Critter.
I always like punny sentiments, so I used my computer to print "Have a COOL birthday!" on the cardstock before I cut it for the card.
This card will be entered in the Die Cuttin' Divas sketch challenge mentioned above.
