Another fun and silly image from Sasayaki Glitter for their monthly progressive challenge. Fortunately, by using it I've added one more birthday card to my stash and that's great because I have a whole series of masculine, family, birthdays coming up over the summer months.
I used ProMarkers to color the image, then cut it and the frame with dies from Gina Marie. Sad note - after almost 8 years of faithful (and strenuous) service, my old Cuttlebug machine had to be replaced. It worked so well for so long, I replaced it with new Cuttlebug and I'm happy I did. :-D
I printed and hand cut the sentiment, matted it, hand cut again, and added it across the image piece. I tied a little bow, using green satin ribbon, then left it CAS after that. It IS a masculine card, after all. :-D

I had to replace my Cuttlebug a couple of years ago and immediately got another one. It was a sad day when the first one died though so I know what you're talking about.
