Happy Birthday Boss!

My boss's birthday was on Monday.  We always have a little birthday cake to celebrate the birthday at the office and everyone gives the birthday person a card. I was going to be away from the office on a mini-vacation so I made him a card and left it with a co-worker for him. 

Here is the card I made for him.

We live near the Gulf of Mexico.  He loves to fish.  What a perfect combination for creating a card for him!  The fold technique I used for this card was called a Shadow Box Card.

Here is the inside when you open it.

 The card is an A2 card which is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 closed.  As you can see in the photo it closes flat and slips right into an envelope.  A nice WOW card that is easy to mail to anyone!

This card was one I just made...no challenges to submit it too.  Just a fun card!

Thank you for stopping by...have a terrific crafty day!

Boss's Day 2009

I made these two cards for my Boss and an Office Manager for boss's day on October 16th. The cards were very easy to make. I needed some leaves & branches and did not have any so I used my Cuttle Bug A2 folder to imprint the leaves. I made two and cut them out. The fence is a die cut from Sizzix die. The poems came from the internet which I printed out on paper. The tree is a stamp from Stampin Up. You cannot see in the scan but the trees have a hint of sparkle on many of the leaves. They must have like them as they still have them displayed on their desk!


Thank you for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!
