Happy Birthday, Everyone

Since I started selling my cards at the Eclectic Boutique in Carthage, I have been inspired to make cards on an almost daily basis. The long weekends are a blessing to me, since my four legged fur baby has designated her job as supervisor, inspector, and most importantly, helper. With her assistance, it sometimes takes longer for me to complete a project, but doing it in stages has been status quo since she moved in with us.

Here is today's creation. I started out with a different plan in mind, falling in love with this stamp after receiving a birthday card featuring it. I like the elegance of this card and with the gender neutrality of this design, I can create a masculine card by simply changing the colored element seen here.
