Yesterday I made a birthday
card for my brother. It wasn’t his
birthday, but we were celebrating it at my mom’s apartment. I looked to Pinterest for my card making
inspiration. I knew I wanted to do a
fold-in card - possibly called a tri-fold.
I can never remember as I am not big on making cards. I like doing them, but my first love is scrapbooking. You can imagine my delight when I came across
a tri-fold that looked like a good “man” card!
I have an 8.5”x11” Colorbok stack that has only
blue and brown patterned paper and I just love it but the only time I use it is
for “man” or sympathy cards, so I was really glad to take it out and use it.
I put little banners on the front – two on one
side, one on the other – and they keep the card closed! I stamped “Happy Birthday” on the middle
banner with a Fiskars stamp and dropped a silver star on it for some “pop”. I made an envelope using my Cricut and the
card was good to go!
My brother loved it and actually asked me if I
made it! Yeah bro – I did! Let me know what you think!
