Happy Birthday

Today I'm sharing a vintage style birthday card made using punches, patterned paper, vintage book pages,  and rubber stamps.  The layout of this card is a personal favorite, because it lends itself to so many different looks; change the floral paper to a more industrial or masculine print, and you have a birthday card for the man in your life.  Change out the ribbon for burlap trim, antique lace, or silk ribbon for a totally different look.
I created the card by layering the different papers, then stamping on both the background and the book page for a different effect.  I also stamped with my stitching stamp on the floral paper; I don't sew, so this stamp is perfect for me!  The checked border is washi tape.  

Thanks for visiting!  

This card is entered in the Simon Says Stamp Monday Blog Challenge Happy Birthday.
