I created this birthday card this weekend for DH's co-worker. It's very hard to make a card for someone you know nothing about I think. But I had decided to do a bit of naked stamping for this card's background. I also made a postage inchie in the same way. I added an image from Crafty Secrets for the greeting.

Coincidentally, the challenge today at Arty Girlz is to use no store bought patterned paper!

Stamps used: Paperbag Studios, Hero Arts, Paper Inspirations, Hampton Arts, Making Memories.

Hope DH pays you at least $5 for that gorgeous card. You probably need a Big Lots fix or something about now. That clipboard is great, too.
