When Jo shared the exciting news about celebrating her sixth year of blogging at Jo's Scrap Shack, I began mentally paging through paper stacks, dies, and stamps to plan a special card. In my mind it was girly, floral, and layered with delicate cuts. In reality, the card I needed was to celebrate the May birthday of one of my favorite guys ever--my dad. I find masculine cards more challenging to make, but I am happy with the way this one turned out. The circular image was cut right out of the middle of a sheet from a Tim Holtz stack....love doing that, but I end up with some strangely shaped scraps!
Thanks, Jo, for the privilege of being on the design team. I started designing for Jo's Scrap Shack on November 11, 2016, and I was thrilled to be able to create a Veterans Day card for my first post. I am constantly inspired by the team's creations and blessed by visiting the participants' blogs to see their entries each week.
Happy, Happy Birthday!

Oh such a gorgeous vintage card, Christine! Love the retro mood and the different colors of scraps add more interest to the card, which turned out lovely masculine one!
