Today's card features a stamp that has been in my collection for what seems like a zillion years. His name is Henry, and he is made by Rubbernecker Stamps. I thought he deserved to see some daylight!
My card starts with a white base, and then I added a panel stamped with the Buffalo Check, background stamp from SU! I added a few strips of red bandanna paper from my scraps. Henry is stamped on a Gina Marie Designs, fishtail tag die and coloring is done with Copic markers. My sentiment and word bubble were grabbed from other random sets. I tied a twine bow and added some navy Nuvo drops, plus a little sparkle to my heart.
I am entering this over at 2 Crafty Critter Crazies, for their newest Challenge.
Most of our friends are in the upper years, so I thought this one would make a great birthday card for the stash. I hope life is good in your part of the world. Seems we have yet another week almost kicked in the butt! Thanks for the visit.

Henry is most adorable and I love that your using your older stuff too! Love the colors of this and the beautiful Buffalo Check background! Your bandana paper is a lovely addition and really completes this! But oh, and that saying is just perfect! Totally love this card! Hope you've been staying cool.
