Originally I was going to use a sentiment stamp I have from a local Christchurch company, Montarga, which says: "You're not old, you're chronologically gifted", but when looking for some images to use for the upper right in the sketch, I came across So 80's and saw the "You're so" stamp and that was it. I die-cut the word "old", painted the letters with Wink of Stella, then clear embossed and came up with this masculine birthday card.
This might end up going to DH for his birthday on Christmas Eve. He'll get a laugh out of it - I think :)
Thanks for visiting.
