Some New Birthday Cards

This card was for a friend who is a mathematician. The inside read "and so is age".
This card was made from DCWV Spring Stack 2007, with a stamp from a Stampin Up set, I just used some colored pencils to fill in the stamp.
This card used paper from the DCWV 2007 Spring Stack, and stamps from a set from Stampin Up.

This card was for my BIL, who is in the Marine Corps. I was trying to use up some grey/black brick paper from one of the Slab stacks, and I thought this was a fun take on a "WANTED" poster. Instead of the "CAPTURED" across the picture, I used a Happy Birthday stamp from Inkadinkadoo.
This birthday card was for my FIL, who likes Westerns. The stamp is from Stampendous. I used metallic gel pen to make the cactus thorns.

Graduation Cards

I recently had a friend graduate with her Master's degree, and I made a card. The wording is horrible, but I made the mistake of handprinting it, and so it is uneven and crappy! I made the "tassle" with ribbon, since our PX didn't have any embroidery floss. I used floral wire to make the neck of the tassle, and the '08 symbol.


This one was for my youngest sister who is graduating from high school this year. Her high school mascot is a tiger, hence the orange background and black stripes. I used scrap black cardstock for the stripes. Same method with the tassle and such on this one. This time I used stickers for the year.
