Finally -- 30th Birthday Cards (Part 1)

Hurray -- my brother's birthday is here and I can finally post the videos of the cards I made for him! (Not that I assume he peruses my craft blog -- but I didn't want to take a chance on spoiling any surprises)!

This post will contain 2 videos: 1 of the card, and another of the amazing surprise party his friends threw for him a couple nights ago. He was genuinely surprised, and I can't resist including it. :)









Card materials:
- Bazzill Basics Smoothies cardstock
- white opaque pen (inkssentials)
- silver embossing powder (Ranger)
- Watermark stamp pad (versamark)
- Street Sign & Paisley cartridges (Provo Craft)
- Pocket full of Posies mat stack (DCWV)
- Sing Along stamp set (American Crafts)
- Boombox stamp set (We R Memory Keepers)
- Copic markers (YR07, Y38, B02, B05, YG03, YG63)

How blessed are we!
Thanks for reading/watching!
