So I used one of Karen's images to make this amazing card:
As he is "OLD" now, I got some vicious things for his birthday, like anti-aging creme, tablets for cleaning your 3rd teeth, earplugs, and so on... So I had to do a vicious inside as well, telling him why he needs all these products now.
And this is how I wrapped everything:
Stamp: "Herbert Birthday Cupcake" & "Birthday candles" from the "Herbert Birthday Set" from Karen's Doodles
Sentiment: WordArt
Colours: Polychromos from Faber Castell
Sketch: Sweet Stop Sketches
Dies: Spellbinders Nestabilities
Embossing folder "hexagon illusion" from Craft Concepts
Papers: free digi paper from Bearly Mine Designs
Buttons, plain papers and cardstock from my stash.I am entering the card in the following challenges:
