My husband's Birthday is coming up, on the 23rd, so I made this card for him. All made out of scrap paper! I haven't bought anything new in so long... I have too many scraps and need to use them!!! The paper was a horizontal stripe, so I cut the shape free hand to ensure I had diagonal stripes just to add some interest. Then took a section of the paper and cut the green-blue-green stripe so break it up a bit and used some chocolate brown cardstock to emboss on and create a scallop edge. The scallop is from Plantin Schoolbook, and that is it. Perhaps I need to invest in a scallop edge punch to make it a bit easier! Some day... Anywho - the doodling is done in a white gel pen and a chocolate brown pen, and the "to you" is hand-written.
Thanks for looking!

Mary, I LOVE this card!! I love how you turned the stripes sideways and how you broke them up in the middle...but most of all I LOVE that white embossing on the chocolate brown! Awesome!!
