Welcome to the Birthday Zone!

You've just stepped into...the birthday zone!

I met Mike and Diane through my friend Carrie. (His sister)

Diane has become one of my best customers.

Mike turned 50 today and she had a party for him over the weekend.

Carrie took the card down to Pennsylvania for Diane and spent the weekend

celebrating with them and their kids.

Diane requested the saying on the front of the card as well as some "shocked/scared" faces because let's face it...Mike turned 50!!

The episode with William Shatner is one of my favorites so of course he made an appearance.

On the inside I just tried to create a "movie/tv" theme with some filmstrips
and then I tried to recreate some of the Twilight Zone intro. 
The stars, the portal and some of the things that fly around and get sucked in.

Since I filled up the inside of the card I needed to leave space
on the back for Diane to write her message to Mike. 
The little clapper board has a combination of information from his favorite
episode and his birthday and age.

The movie themed stamps are from a DT I used to be on called I Brake for Stamps.

It's called Movie Posters Sheet.

I Brake for OZ!

Hello and happy Saturday!!

Today I'm sharing the card that I made for my sister's birthday...this coming November.  Yes,  I may have planned a little bit ahead. I've been a fan of I Brake for Stamps for a VERY long time.  Some how I had never seen this set until recently.  My sister is a HUGE Wizard of Oz fan and I just couldn't wait to make her this card!!

The set is called MOVIE POSTERS SHEET and it has 8 images on it. I used 5 of them on my card.

I got on Google to see how to color this more accurately and found this Spanish poster that matched the image.

This is the inside of the card right now but they may change before I send it to my sister.  I remembered that I have a small shoe die so I might cut some ruby slippers out and add them.

To create my sparkly "ruby" border around the poster I used a FUSIBLE GLITTER SHEET.  These aren't really meant to be used like paper but I can't get enough of that glorious sparkle these sheets have!!  This one is the RED.  Check out the link to see all you can do with these sheets!  I have a bunch of colors and they're all stunning!  You can use them to iron onto clothing or other craft projects.
