Happy Wednesday, peeps! Popping in today with a special card for a special guy...today is hubby John's birthday! I usually make him a sailboat card but since he is a hunter, I decided to make a "deer" John card, LOL:
Obviously, it's not THAT kind of Dear John card, and hopefully he'll like it! I stamped the deer on Very Vanilla cardstock in Stazon Black and used Cinnamon Cider ink to color her in. She was fussy-cut and mounted on another piece of Very Vanilla which was shaded with Misty Moonlight and Night of Navy inks. The background panels are from some 6x6 pads in my stash, and the horizontal Mossy Meadow strip was distressed and stamped with Gorgeous Grunge. Sentiment is from Your Biggest Fan!
My sketch came from Try Stampin' On Tuesday:
Thanks for visiting today!
In addition to all the other gazillion things I have going on this week, it's Operation Christmas Child shoebox packing time! We did shoeboxes on our own this year instead of at church, so Cassidy spent Sunday afternoon getting hers ready:

She did one for a boy and one for a girl and she had fun picking out all the goodies to put inside! It's so fun to imagine the children opening them up! Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Such a great "Dear John" card, LeAnne! Just love how everything came together and the natural feel to this card! He is going to love it! Happy Birthday, John!
Love this and I know John will too! Happy birthday, John!! Operation Shoebox is such a wonderful ministry. Praying many children will come to know our Savior through this. Have a blessed day.
Such a wonderful card for your deer John, LeAnne! Happy birthday to him from us!
I think Cassidy's shoebox gifts are going to be happily received by one boy and one girl! So sweet!
