Birthday Card in Español!

Hey Stampers!  Bienvenido!!……Welcome!!!

My dad’s birthday is coming up this Sunday, February 21st so I started today in my craft room a birthday card for him.  I’m so excited because this Sunday me and my hubby are going over to my sister in law’s house and were having a family get together to celebrate my dad’s birthday! Can’t wait to see everyone and eat lot’s of Guatemalan and Mexican food!….Yummmmmy!!! Oh? but wait…..can’t forget the carne asada!!!

My dad’s fave colors are blue, green and brown. So I used a paper pack from Making Memories called Paperie Poolside & Greenhouse. You can get this 6×6 paper pad at Treehouse Stamps.  I used 5 different patterns from this pack. Since I love using my sewing machine I did some zig zag stitching on each layer.

For the Spanish birthday sentiment I just printed that out from my computer and distress the paper a little bit with Tim Holtz distress ink.  Added some Olive color ribbon to the top right corners, also from Treehouse Stamps.  Used a lot of pop dots on both layers.  Added a small metal brad and all done.  It was very easy and simple to do.  The only thing I forgot to do when I was typing the sentiment was to add a “tilde” that’s the little squiggly thing {~) over the letter “ñ”……..lol!  I think I’ll just write it in.

Card measure 4 1/2 x 3 1/2 inches.
