I always feel for those people that have their birthdays over the holidays. This has the sparkle of Christmas but it is a birthday card. The bg is the packaging from the new argyle stencil and I used gold glitter paste then wrapped gold twine around three times. The digi is my purchase with the prize I won from a challenge and is water colored then die cut and mounted on white cs and then gold sticker paper. Sentiment was printed on copier then trimmed and attached to gold tag. Tag is attached with the sticky side of the gold piece. All is mounted on white cs base.

Great masculine card! Love the rich colors and the image you chose! It’s so sparkly and festive without being holiday-ish, and I am sure the recipient will love it!

Great masculine birthday card. I also feel bad for December birthday people. Our grandson’s is a week before Christmas Eve and our great-granddaughter’s is Dec. 27.

This is fantastic Bonnie! I have a couple people who have birthdays right at Christmas, so I’m always trying to do birthday cards that are totally not Christmas, cause it’s no fun the other way. This really is a great one and I love that you used different types of paper for it, too.

A great card Bonnie, love the gold embossing and a Christmas Birthday is a good excuse to get sparkly.
