This is an old rubberstamp that I drug out of my drawer the other day, I used navy ink on white paper and layered it on gray. I also used a little bit of ink around the square that I stamped the image on. I decided to make this a masculine card as I always seem to come up short on those but this one seemed to remind me of that and the sea. And of course I used my favorite happy birthday stamp… It’s very versatile, and it says it all

Eat Ham!

I had this one left over from Thanksgiving time. It was a very CAS colored with my markers which I am learning with and the stamp wasn’t very old stamp that I used but one of my favorites. Hope everybody gets a little chuckle. I know it’s terribly odd a season.😂😂

Added a rodeo 3d diecut sticker from my stash and a couple of gems to finish it off.       Cute card for that special man/boy, birthday.
