Happy Birthday to my Hubby!


This card was created for my wonderful husband's birthday that was in October.  We share the same birthday month and like to go on a new & exciting road trips each year!  This year we journeyed to Foxburg, Pennsylvania and stayed at a hotel along the Allegheny River.  We visited a very yummy winery and found a wonderful scrapbook store along the way!

This card was inspired by our dream to live out in the country hopefully once my husband completes nursing school!


I finally got to play with my envelope board and made this beautiful envelope to match the card I made!!
 

I started with an 8 1/2 by 11 sheet of card stock in Early Espresso, cut it in half and folded to make the card.  I took pieces of patterned from our last holiday catalog and back them with either Marina Mist card stock or Cherry Cobbler.  I used a piece of Marina Mist card stock and die cut it with a circle, then ran in thru the Big Shot with the Woodgrain Embossing Folder.  I die cut a smaller circle with Whisper White card stock and stamped the tractor in the center.  I colored the tractor using my Stampin' Markers in Marina Mist, Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green, Basic Grey, Smoky Slate and Black.  The "Happy BIrthday" was inked in Cherry Cobbler and stamped onto a piece of Marina Mist card stock which was punched out by the Word Window Punch for the completed look!


Thank you for visiting with today!
