Happy Birthday card #1

CardzTV has a challenge for birthday cards!  I've been busy making cards for Lasting Hearts...this is for a project I learned about from Jennifer McGuire's blog.  She suggested card makers make and send cards to go inside the book "You are the Mother of all Mothers' which will be given to women that have had a recent miscarriage.  The lady that began this project works for Hero Arts and lost a set of twins.  Someone shared that book with her and it touched her so much she found a way to raise funds to buy these books for her doctor's office to distribute.  Hero Arts is giving a portion of profits from one of their retired stamp/die cut set called "Prayers".  If you are interested, you can find this being sold at www.simonsaysstamp.com.  Hopefully this venture for moms that miscarry will spread to other parts of the country.  I lost my first child, so this was such a wonderful way for me to reach out in a small way to these hurting, sorrowful women. 
Back to other cards....for now, birthday!!  The first one is a manly card.  I loved the sentiment and made it with one of the guys I worked with in mind!  He is hitting a big "0"  birthday, so it is a fun kind of card!

Found this crazy stamp, cut it out.  Used a pre-printed card and scrap of the Happy Birthday to You paper, a red gingham ribbon and there you go!!  Fun, Fun, Fun!! 
Have a blessed day!
