I made this birthday card for my friend Al. The starting point was a rubber stamp of a martini glass and the word 'celebrate' which I hadn't used before. I stamped it onto a small oval die-cut with a decorative edge and decided to use a tall thin card blank and centre this in the middle.
As the die-cut was blue I found a blue polka dot backing paper to cover the card. I also used a rubber stamp to stamp the word happy birthday onto another piece of blue card which I stuck across the bottom. The card still needed something at the top and I had the right letters to spell Al's name from a pack of silver stick letters for which there was just enough room at the top.
This card ties in perfectly with the theme for the Cards 4 Guyz challenge this week, food and drink.
Brilliant card for your friend and perfect for our challenge at Cardz 4 Guyz. Thanks for playing along

Ooops, I thought I commented last night, I don't trust my ipad though, it probably ate it! Lovely to see you joining us at Cardz 4 Guyz - Al must have been delighted with his card. I think I have some of that background paper too!
