Happy Birthday to the Man in My Life!

My husband in no way looks like the image in this stamp set (well, at least not the clothes…he dresses way cooler…maybe the silver hair) but….I had to use it anyway.  🙂  He is celebrating a milestone birthday today!
Let me also say that he frequently tells people that he “robbed the cradle”, lest you think I’m the same age as him.  LOL!

When this card is closed, it looks pretty plain and ordinary.  But the real “WOW” can be seen when the card is opened up.

This type of fun-fold card is called a “Tri-Shutter Fold” card.  Lots of little panels to decorate.  You can find a tutorial for the Tri-Shutter Fold card here.  Once you have the card base cut & scored, it’s easy to decorate.
