For the Boss

So the big boss' birthday is in a few weeks, and the whole office is throwing a party at the end of February b/c ... well, it's just what we do for her birthday. And it's a "big one" at that. Anyway, I'm in charge of the gift card holder/birthday card. And here's how it turned out. (I'm particularly proud of this one b/c I designed the card myself - no scrap lifting. Shocking ... for me!)

The outside

Background: white cardstock
Paper: TLC-pink patchwork
Stamps: SU-Birthday Best & Tag Time
Ink: SU-chocolate chip
Misc: brown ribbon, tacky tape, pop dots, CM-circle cutters, SU-watercolor pencils & blender pen, Stickles-crystal, platinum, pink, & Xmas red
Notes: you'll notice the two center circles are actually completely cut out allowing the 6 & 0 to peek through from the inside of the card

The inside
