FMS712 John's 70th Birthday

Happy Thursday, peeps!  John has a "big" birthday coming up on Sunday!  He'll be retiring at the end of the year as well! Lots of milestones!  I used the FMS sketch this week to make his card! Here's the sketch:

And here we go:


I used several retired products on my card; the Large Numbers dies, an image from Sailing Home, and a sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes.  I also embossed a portion of the card front with the Cast Away embossing folder from Spellbinders:


Inside, the sentiment from Best Year was stamped in Cherry Cobbler:


We don't have anything big planned for his "big" day, but we'll go out to dinner!  Thanks for popping in today, enjoy it and be blessed!

Beautiful! The scene stealer for me is that gorgeous rope embossing.
