Birthday Crazies

Good morning and happy bank holiday, and... it's not raining! Here's a card I made over the weekend.



I've know for months that his birthday was coming up, but of course left it till the day before to start the card. It was all glued together on the day. It doesn't bode well for Christmas does it! Lots of cutting and sticking on Christmas Eve...

 I made the background with lots of TH stamps and Distress Inks. I must admit this is my favourite part :-)
This bit took me 15 minutes, the rest of it took about 4 hours!

Much stamping, cutting and colouring later and we have the crazies! As a non-cute type of gal I love these guys. You can have a 'man' card without a golfer or a pint of pint of beer on it!

I'm entering this into the SSS Wednesday challenge, where it's still Hip To Be Square.

Enjoy your bank holiday everyone, and thanks very much for looking xx
