I made this card a while back, and realized I never posted it! I drew inspiration from Leigh's card here and Karen's card here to come up with this birthday card for my nephew's 7th birthday.
Here is a peek at the inside. The Toys R Us giftcard that is tucked into the library card pocket will probably be the most interesting part of the card for him.
Supplies Used (PTI):
Stamps: Grunge Me, Boy Basic Circles, Rock On, IO Cover a Card Distressed Corduroy, Big Birthday Wishes
Paper: Kraft, White, Pure Poppy, True Black
Other: Library Card Pocket Die, EK Success Edger punch, Circle Punch
Thanks for Visiting
