There are so many birthdays this month (Sept.) here must not be anything good on TV in January.
Birthday card for Steve's best friend Jerry. Usually I make a serious card for him but decided to do something different this year. He has a great sense of humor and always makes a fuss over my cards.
Again, used the Brayer technique for the bg and Lovely as a Tree. Tried my hand at highlighting with white pen like the Zindorf lady, I think I like it. Used Hampton Arts Clear Stamps ‘Who Loves You?’ for the tree, owl and moon/stars. EB in Pirates Gold the sentiment Who’s Having a Birthday, and added mini brads, and put googlie eyes on the owl. Popped the tree and the sentiment.
Thanks for looking.

Agh! You said the 'b' work again! (brayer!) Sis, you know that skeers me, and there you go! Yikes- wonderful effect tho. (Maybe I need some personal lessons?) Lovely as a Tree has got to be one of the all-time fav's in SU for me, and your trees look great. Wonderfully fun card Jude- googlie eyes and all! LYMI

Look at you, Zindorfin all over the place!!!! Michelle will love this one just like all of us. I think you got the brayering technique down Sistah. The touch of white gel pen absolutely makes those trees stand out! I especially love the moon and stars, so perfect with this theme. Glad there isn't anything on TV in January if you can churn out beauties like this nine months later!!!! You made me laugh!
