Wow April sure went by fast! Today is my brother Joe's birthday (yes, I have a brother named Joe America). I just love this Graphic 45 paper so I decided to make him a birthday card with it.
I have gotten into the habit of using my button punch to make buttons with the small scraps of paper, it is a good way to recycle and use up every bit of paper. Here is the inside of the card.
Mack, this card is gonna be late; I forgot how to use the regular mail (this is a joke, my brother is a retired Postmaster. ...but it really is going to be late...sorry)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! AND MANY MORE!!!!
I am entering this card into the following challenges:
