I don't know why I never thought about cutting multiple layers of cardstock with a nestie but it was a lot of fun and I'll most certainly be doing it again. I love the effect it creates. Elen wanted the card to say Happy 72nd Birthday, Baba but I didn't have any small number stamps and I didn't think it would look good for me to write it in. Besides, I don't even have a brown pen or marker. I used the letters from Happy Birthday to create the word Baba. Baba means Dad in many languages including Bangla, East African, Greek, Spanish, Kikuyu, Kiswahili, Malay, Chinese, Swahili and Turkish.
My son even calls his Dad baba which is cute because we didn't even teach him that. He couldn't pronounce the letter D so Dada automatically became Baba. It's also funny because while I'm Chinese and it makes sense for my son to use the Chinese word for Dad, my husband is a mix of Irish, Scottish, Welsh and German! My husband thinks it's so sweet and doesn't ever want to be called Dad, just Baba. :)
And now my giveaway...
I wanted to share some joy! I don't know why I have so much ribbon seeing that I hardly ever use ribbon on my cards. I got a hoard of ribbon from the sweet owner of Clippopotamus and a lot of it will never be used but I know that someone out there in crafty blogland will figure out a way to use it! So in honour of seriously blogging for one year and winning a guest designer spot with Splitcoaststampers' CAS Summer 2010 design team, I'd like to offer you a chance to win all this ribbon! There are 24 loose strands, some of which are several feet long, plus five brand new spools. All you have to do is become a follower of my blog (add yourself to the link on my sidebar) and enter a comment at the bottom of this post.
If I reach more than 25 followers by the time I randomly select a winner on July 1st (Canada Day), I'll throw in some Pink Cat Studio goodies of your choice with a value up to $15. (This means you can select one large rubber set, two mini rubber sets or three digital images with a total of not more than $15.) If I reach 50 followers, I'll throw in double the amount of Pink Cat Studio goodies. (Same rules apply.) Sound good? What are you waiting for then?! Become a follower, leave a comment, then tell all your crafty friends so they can share the joy! :D
