Happy Birthday!

Wednesday, May 13th, 2009

What do you get the most fabulous friend who has everything? A lovely set of handmade cards, of course! I whipped these up for my fellow Taurus who’s birthday is TODAY!!! Happy Birthday J! I hope Rhett Miller makes all your dreams come true! And really, doesn’t the bald eagle just scream “Thank You”? I know.

And because I just Love To Give, here’s the layout if you’d like to make your own (click to view the full size file, then right click to save it. Fold in half & cut at 5.5″, AKA The Middle Of The Paper.). This is ready to print on 8.5×11″ cardstock and will fit size A-2 4.375″ x 5.75″ envelopes. I used watercolors to color them, but colored pencils would work just as well (and you won’t have to flatten them under a pile of 10 encyclopedias to get all the water-warps out). However, you MUST ADD GLITTER. Otherwise I won’t let you have it. GLITTER GLUE IS NOT OPTIONAL!!!

Oh yeah, and I took out J’s name so you can write in your OWN name.

And, because you asked so nicely, here’s an Angsty College Art piece. Awww, just look at it. So sincere. So deep. So embarrassing…
