Birthday card for Nancy's Dad

Every year I make a special birthday card for my cousin's dad.  Here is the one I made for 2017.



I found this paper at Farmhouse memories.  The wood paper is so awesome.  Look at those fabulous colors.  It also has a marvelous shine.  I fussy cut the chickens from another piece of patterned paper.  And, I found that wonderful Spellbinders die on Rachel's clearance rack.

Challenges:

Die Cuttin Divas Challenge #331 - Birthday Celebration
Crafty Gals Corner Challenge #137 - Punches and/or Dies 
Seize the Birthday Challenge - Anything Goes

  5. What a great card! Though this is for a man, I think anybody could appreciate it! I love all aspects of it, and really like the addition of the metal studs next to the sentiment. Thanks for sharing at SOS this week.
