Happy Birthday, Honey!

Hello!  Well, here goes, my first post to my "blog".  I never thought I would do this, but through the encouragement from my friends, decided it was time.  So, the first card I will post is the latest card I've created.  My husband's birthday is in about three weeks, but he won't be home for it again this year, so, I made his card, we went to dinner, and I gave him his birthday present and card before he leaves for work.  He has lots of "toys" but one of his favorites is his Harley, so I thought it only fitting that his card be of a motorcycle.  I used the SU Motorcycle stamp on Nenah Solar White Paper, used a Cuddlebug EF (can't see the detail well in the photo), Happy Birthday on SU Basic Black paper, with a contrasting print of SU Design Series "Cast-A-Spell".  Distress Black Soot was used to stamp the image and I used SU colors to sponge around the image, and Copic markers to color the image. I used accent pens to highlight the chrome - chrome is important to a Harley owner!!!
I'll post some of my previous cards soon, but for now, wish me luck with this and wish my husband a Happy Birthday!
