I got this card idea from the new Stampin' Up catalog. I saw a card in there with a similar design to this, and really liked it, so I made one that was similar.
I used some ribbon that Alison sent me in my Midnight Oil Scrapbook Designs DT box. Then I added some twine to a button and attached the button to the ribbon.
The little birthday stamp is from a Stampin' Up set. All the paper is Cosmo Cricket and the cardstock is Bazzill (blue) and Close to My Heart (orange).
I sanded all around the monogram with my Basic Grey files, just to distress it a bit. I edged the paper with ink, and sanded the edges of the orange paper to reveal the white core. Lots of lovely layers on this card!Please join me in wishing Jonah a very happy 9th birthday! He's very excited about turning 9. Hopefully I'll have some photos scrapped before he turns 10!
