What a fabulous sketch Korin... I wanted to do a pop up card so I started my inside pop up last night and I had the 57 already done. I just needed to finish the inside and do the front this morning.
Hambo Hoedown : incorporate a pennant or banner....
I used the Hambo Stamps Caveman clear set.
Central Theme...Virtual Vacation, Take a vacation from your usual style. Nothing CAS about this...
I drew and cut out my numbers with a kraft knife. A fun card for my DH for next year... Yup... I am a year ahead... For the date I used a JustRite stamps alphabet. I left the front off so I could show it all in one photo. I thought it was easier that way.
Thanks for looking

Truly a FAB card, Irene. I look forward to seeing your next "great creation" in every gallery. This is over-the-top fantastic with your cute outside and even more mind-boggling inside with your "age pop-up"!
Wow, lots of work went into this card and it's fabulous. I am awed by the inside where you made your own numbers and then cut them out to create a pop up. Your card really gets the point across and is just too darn cute. Way to go Irene.
