Let's Party

Good Morning Peeps---Happy Saturday to you..I hope everyone is healthy and happy today......Today is suppose to be nice then turn into rain later around dinner time. It's that time of year again where I dust off the diet plan and get back out into the yard again. I have cleaned off the patio and have all of my pots ready to add some pretty flowers to them. I have yet to start on the re do of the living room, but it's coming...I can't wait and just wish it could be done already...lol...I have so many ideas I just hope hubby will be feeling them to...kwim..lol...we'll see...

Well, today I have a card that's been sitting here on my desk that I wanted to share...a girlfriend asked me to help plan her hubby's 40th and this is a proto type..I'm working on a couple more so that she could have a few to choose from....ENJOY!!!!

I wanted to do a manly card so I dug into my scraps of goodness (meaning older and dusty supplies) and played around with a casino type party...I rubber stamped (Paper Artsy) the image onto water color paper and edged it with ink...same size acetate for top layer and sprayed Krylon frosted glass spray to make a window feel...billiards sign from Karen Foster...paper from My Mind's Eye...tore a zipper in half to add to top border with some snaps that I found...greeting from Inkadinkado with Studio G club and spade stamps...I made the corner brads to kind of re fleck a bullet and used a silver round brad topped with an upholstery tack with a pearl...so what do ya think? Did I achieve it...lol...a manly rustic old time feel??

here's a side view...this is where the birthday party info would be tucked inside....
