Hello and TFL,
Here is a BIRTHDAY card for DH.. hahaha... but after 43 yrs of marriage I just didn't have another 'animal in the woodsy/fishing/workbench' card in me. !! : )
so... for the first time I made his card w VERY OLD STASH S U Halloween papers (USEIT2023) and then punch that up with the ALL SEEING EYE!
The white EP is on top of S U Craft Whisper White ink, super sturdy ink that really take the white powder and makes a statement.
OLD STASH S U Halloween dsp makes up the bg and the largest oval.
The largest oval is sponged with several colors and then i just embossed with CLEAR EP on several areas and it's very shiny in person., You may be able to see some of it bumpy around the bottom edge on this pic.
"EYE" used the "EYE" in many ways on the inside sentiment message, of the card. ?? TM'EYE'? haha
hope you enjoy it and next year,/\....
back to 'woodsy'.!

Oh, gosh! I love this and I love what you said about just not having a woods/workbench etc card in you! So true!! I love how unique this is. It is so striking, it jumps off the gallery page!

Well that truly will be a different addition to your hubby’s card collection, Teresa, lol! He’s probably looked at a lot of cards, but never had one looking back at him! After 43 years, you can still mix it up and keep things fresh, my friend! I love the gears in the bg, great masculine design element, and I also love your cool and funky stitching, and that you left the ends. You have a way with texture. I’m not much of a skull gal, but that paper is sooo cool regardless, lol. I wouldn’t let my boys buy clothing with them on, but every now and again, I missed them in some fancy scroll work, and the boys got a win, ha! My best was buying my 13 year old a new camo bathing suit on the way to a trip south. It had shades of pale blue, green, and tan and was quite nice. After a couple of days on the beach, my older kids expressed surprise at me letting my 13 yr old wear that suit!! On closer inspection, the camo patches were all busty, sexy, posed ladies in silhouette!! DOH! Way to go Mom, lol!
