My brothers birthday was last week, and I had so many things going on, I nearly drove to Hallmark to buy a birthday card for him. Although, that is strictly against "house rules" when you consider I have a small fortune in stamps, paper and ink in my basement. CraftyMomof2 said "Don't you dare!!" and promptly sent me back down to the basement to gather the supplies.
So, I pulled out my handy new Cowboy Collection paper made by Crate Paper and purchased from Eclectic Paperie. I opened up my brandy new ink pad of Buckaroo Blue (what took me so long? Its almost the end of these "In Colors!!" ) and I used my much loved, but rarely used twill tape and hodgepodge.
I love my brother dearly, but he's one tough customer and I was nervous giving him the card. However, I really do think he liked it. Oh, he still thinks I'm a big dork, but well...I he's right.....but these days I revel in my “dork-hood!”

Super card!
Wow! My son's birthday is this week. I have the hardest time with "guy" cards and he is a graphic designer, so I was having difficulty deciding what to make. Love, love your card and I have that stamp set and the wish button, but had never imagined the two together. Thank you so much for inspiration.
