Son-In-Law's Birthday card!

Last year, I made Chad a "Fed-Ex" card, but he sold his fleet a few months ago, so I decided to use my new MFT "typewriter" stamp and die on this year's card. The image isn't as clear as I would like -- most likely my OWN lack of stamping expertise -- but, after several tries, I decided it was GOOD ENOUGH.

Unlike last year's card, which was very detailed, I kept THIS year's EASY & SIMPLE. Jer hadn't signed it, yet, when I took the photos, but his "John Henry" doesn't add that much to the finished product, anyway. (grin)

  1. I love the typewriter stamp! a nice size, perfect for the card! and the blue paper did you use a punch on the edge? I am sure Chad is going to enjoy his card "no work allowed?" gotta love that lol

  2. just lovely, deb:) sometimes, when i get new stamps, i find they stamp much clearer if i first stamp the stamp into versa mark ink, and then directly into the ink itself. someone gave that tip to you when i first started stamping. hope that helps you:)
