Llama Birthday

The llama is the star of the show on this card. Such a fun and simple focal point. The LONG TIME NO SEE set is just adorable, and the dog in the set shines just as much! The card seemed like it was missing something so I added the hand-drawn black line border. 

The "limited edition" is not Stampin Up - it is from Tim Holtz set TINY TEXT. In order to get the long deckled rectangle for this slimline, I cut the first half by not allowing the top cutting plate to cover the bottom of the rectangle, then flipped over and did the same thing. 
 

Classic Trucks card

 I don't know about you, but I often struggle with ideas for a masculine card. I love this classic truck from the Trucking Along set item # 162299. It is available for purchase in the online exclusives. I also love that the truck comes with a coordinating punch - super simple to create multiple. 

The truck is a two-step stamping, so the background color is from a stamp. The "best wishes" makes it a nice all occasion card. Simple, fun, masculine - ya!
