I made this card for my Dad's birthday! I just couldn't resist and I know that he will get a laugh out of it. The inside of the card reads,"your birthday cake looks like baked alaska." Hehe!
I used my new Red Hiding Hood Red and textured Pacific Point card stock on this card. I am not sure who makes the confetti dp, but I know that I bought it at Joann's. The "old guy" image is from the set You Know You're Old When by Gina K. Designs. I stamped him on watercolor paper in black and colored him using the Watercoloring with Markers technique and my SU! markers. Here is a link to the tutorial: Watercoloring With Markers Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers. The sentiment (from the same stamp set) is heat embossed with white ep. The image panel is up on dimensionals. Finally, I added the brads in the corners of the image panel and the card front.
Thanks for looking!

Oh, Dorothy, this is priceless, girl. You dad will jump for joy for sure. That is, if he's able at his old guy age! Fantastic dp and you've colored this guy so perfectly! It's just fantastic. Too awesome, girl, just too darn awesome is this one.
