Making cards for friends with a theme is more fun than just using the balloons and birthday cake ideas. Our good friend was a football coach and also played football in high school. His birthday is tomorrow so it is already in the mail. I used the sponging technique for the background, Elizabeth craft's football die, and the grass (which I use all the time) is from Die-namics.
Inside sentiment, love it!
This gatefold/crossover card is for my Aunt Carol who turns 80 tomorrow. Love the sentiment "80 looks good on you". She is my Mom's youngest sister. We are hoping to take her to lunch soon especially before the snow flies.
This type of card is a different way to close the card and I'm always looking for a different style card to make. Happy Birthday Aunt Carol!
One last card is for our friends who son just had a baby boy! So this is kind of like a birthday card too but more Welcome little one! His name is Jones Maloy Hallisey! Such an adorable little guy.
I used a template that I found on Pinterest to make this card. The embellishments are stickers from Echo Park's Baby Boy collection. Thanks for checking out my cards. As you can see it has been a busy fall as well as summer!
