Here is a card I made for my friend Megan's birthday. It's not until September, but I saw this same sentiment on a card on someone's blog (forgive me, I forget who) and I just had to use it for her card! She has a quirky sense of humor, just like me. I used a grouchy looking dragon from Dustin Pike. I say grouchy, bc he doesn't really look all that dangerous to me, he just looks like he's trying to scare you. LOL. I know some men like that. The card base is by My Mind's Eye. I used lots of brown chalk to make it look dirty or burnt. The only thing I acutally did burn is the brown cardstock on the front and inside of the card. Like I've said before, I'm a bit of a pyromaniac like my hubby, so I had fun making this card. The heat also makes the cardstock bow out a bit so it looks more 3D.
I should mention as well, I figured out a little trick on my own today for how to attach this ribbon to the card. As you can see the ribbon disappears on the left side of the card. I used my Exacto blade to cut a slit in the fold of the card. That way I had no loose ends, I could slide it inside and hide it. And you can see below how it comes inside and I've tucked it under the cardstock.
What an ADORABLE card Tammy!!! Cute cute cute!!!
