Have a MEGABYTE Day!

Happy Monday, everyone!  I hope you're having a wonderful holiday season!  Today is my day to post over at Pink By Design, and I want to share the birthday card I made for my hubby with you today (his birthday is tomorrow).  Here it is:


I got this cute little robot from the Lettering Delights Animal Boxes and Bags SVG Set and cut it out with my Silhouette machine.  I decided to use him on a card instead of a box, though.  I embossed the background with my Clockworks Cuttlebug Folder, and added some ink to make the embossing stand out a bit more.  I was also attempting to make it look a bit more masculine.  "Masculine" is not my strong suit.   Of course, I got the wonderful sentiment from Pink By Design's Gigabyte Stamp Set.  I think this will be a go-to set for cards for my hubby since he works with computers...all of the sentiments are just PERFECT for him!

On the inside of the card, I wanted to carry on the gear pattern, but I didn't want the texture that is on the front (so it would be easy to write on).  So, I used my PBD Gears Background Stamp with some ink that is a bit darker than the paper to create a fun background.  I'm sorry for showing you my personal message to my hubby...I got a little excited and wrote in in before I took pictures of it.  Ooops!  At least I didn't get too gushy. :)



 Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you like my little card.  Have a wonderful day!
