Birthday Cattails

I needed a birthday card for my brother, and this first one is the one that he got. Or hopefully will get by his birthday on Tuesday! I don't generally make cards for specific people, but I don't have any masculine cards in my stash. I ink-blended the background. For the sun, I ink-blended it on the cut-out pieces and added them back in. The sentiment is from Gina K.

Edited to add: The die is from Memory Box.

Since I had the die out, I made another card. I embossed the background with a Cuttlebug/Anna Griffin embossing folder. The sentiment is again from Gina K.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!
