Definitely not your typical birthday card

But since it's for a younger brother who achieved Grand Master status in the "I know you are but what am I?" game at a very young age, it's fitting.



I won some Grungeboard awhile back and, while I like the possibilites of it, I find it kinda icky. (No offense, Leah!) The texture is strange and it smells yucky. So, I touched it as little as possible and then covered with embossing powder which hid the smell. And that, my friends from Tuesday Taggers, is what was I did to step outside my comfort zone. (I would like to say that the whole style of the card was outside my comfort zone but really, it's not. Scary, eh?)

For:

Allsorts: birthdays
Get Sketchy: sketch
OCC: male birthday
Little Red Wagon: brads
ABC Challenge: U for unused stash (brads)
Tuesday Taggers: step out of your comfort zone
Cute Card Thursday: for someone special

Okay, so ever since I started my blog (well, maybe not right from the get-go, it was probably a good six months or so before I realized you could change it from just "Leave your comment") I've tried to come up with something witty to type here.

*sitting with brow furrowed in concentration*...*staring at the ceiling while pursing lips*...*resting with head on hand while tapping foot*...

Nope, I still got nothing.
