Here is the other card I made for Jo. This one she gave to her stepbrother, so not quite as conservative as the one for her stepfather! LOL! I love that SU has added the lower-case mono alphas cause they are much easier to fit on the card and still have room for some other stuff. If I had this one to do over again, I think I would have highlighted in some way the "b" in birthday so that it was a little more obvious what the monogram letter was all about. Oh well, that's wha'cha get when I try to do two cards on the same night with limited time! :)
I stamped the monogram b on white with Ballet Blue and cut it out, leaving a small border of white all the way around. Then I layered iton a piece of Chocolate Chip c/s and cut it out again. The "Happy Birthday" piece is popped up on dimensionals.

Wonderful cards Dana as always.
If I had been you I would have used a beautiful blue flower with yellow spots on it and I would not have too.LOL

I love it! It's a great card for a guy but still fun to make. You even managed a little ribbon without making it look frilly. Great job!
