A Humorous Birthday

Hi, today I have a card with a bit of humor on it

I have had this stamp set for a number of years and haven't

used it much.  I love chickens so when I saw this stamp set

from Rubbernecker I had to buy it.

I made this card following the sketch from last week over at 

The Outlawz.

I stamped the chicken on kraft cardstock using 

Catherine Pooler inks, Eucalyptus and Sauna.  I used my

MISTI (as I do for all my stamping) so I could stamp it

a couple times to make it show up on the kraft.

The chickens and the sentiment are both from the same

Mark's Finest stamp set, unfortunately, they have closed

down their shop.  I must have bought these stamps 6-7 years ago.

I used my chicken wire embossing folder for the background and

the background chicken paper is a single sheet I had.

Added a bit of twine and that was it.

I will enter this in the Retro Rubber challenge that

wants you to give your love to some old stamps.  The challenge

is open until June 15th so you still have time if you wish to play along.

Well, I hope you liked my card and got a chuckle out of it.

Just have to figure out who I can send it to that would get a chuckle also.

A few more birthday cards

Hello everyone, boy I am on a roll clearing out my waiting to post basket, I told you I was behind on posting.  LOL

Today I have 3 more birthday cards to share with you.

Birthday Greetings

Lots of different texture and embossing on this card.  The background paper is pearl off white that I embossed using my butterfly embossing folder and my eBosser.  The center image I got off of Google and cut out. Sorry I stand corrected I actually got this image off of Pinterest.

Fabric buttons

A while back I bought a package of embellishments from Michael's dollar bin.  I loved the bright colors and have had it sitting on my desk waiting to use it.  Well FINALLY months later I did use it on a card.  The three buttons are covered with fabric and the pink rick-rack behind them also came in that embellishment package.  The happy birthday I cut using a new die I recently bought.

Spring Chicken

I love chicken things and have a collection of different ones on top of my kitchen cabinet, so when I saw this stamp set at Mark's Finest I just had to get it, not to mention the humor behind it.  I embossed the background with my chicken wire embossing folder.  I stamped the chickens in colors to match the paper, then stamped the chicken wire over the top of them with my Versa Mark stamp pad.

This one you have to see the inside also.

I thought this was funny, now I have to figure out who to send it to that would not be offended.

Thanks for stopping by again, will keep working on that basket of cards.
