100 yr old Vet Card

Hello fellow crafters!

Today I'm showing you a card that I made

for a gentleman who was turning 100 in

early October.  I saw the story on facebook and

since I'm a big sucker for these kind of things,

I decided that I'd send him a card.

I'm sure he received well over 100 cards

and I was glad mine was one of them.

I'm sorry this picture isn't better,

it's very difficult to get a good picture

when it's metallic card stock.

I heat embossed the star pattern with 

silver embossing powder onto silver

metallic card stock, this creates a pretty cool

look, which doesn't really show in the picture.

I used purple embossing powder for the 

sentiment.

Inside I embossed a simple 

happy birthday greeting.

I made an envelope and decorated that too.

I hope he enjoyed my card and that it added

some smiles to his special day.

Have you ever sent a card to someone

you don't know?

Thanks for stopping in today and spending

time here.

I hope you have been inspired in some way.

Until next time,

spread some handmade kindness!
