It's a banana type of birthday

I made this card for my hubby’s birthday. Anytime I give my hubby a card, it has to have some “corn” to it. By that I mean, it has to be funny, punny or down-right corny (see the card sentiment). He has a sense of humor that I love and only gets better with age. Ok, enough of that as I’m starting to get mushy and I don’t do mush…much. :)


Of course the card had to have a masculine edge. As my hubby would say, it has to be “Dude Approved” to be good for a dude/man. I decided on a clean and simple (CAS) design but with a rustic edge to it. I used the SCS Faux Wood Frame tutorial to get that edge.

I think it turned out pretty good for my first swing at it. Hubby was happy with it and that’s the most important thing.

It sill amazes me what you can do with a little paper, paint or whatever. Good job on the woodgrain, it looks great. And you are right about the corn...you must have a field full of it!

You're right, I am not old and if I happen to turn ripe, make some good banana pudding with the chocolate chips in them. I really loved my card and since it's "Dude Approved", I will gladly display it for eternity.
