You Only Get One Shot

This is a card I made for my brother who loves to hunt.  I cased it from the Cricut message board.    I used stampin up card stock, garden green, chocolate brown, gable green and close to cocoa.  The puppy was cut from paper pups and the background was from accent essentials,  oh the tag was from tags bags boxes and more.  The patterned paper was from a paper pack I got at Costco.  I don't have a stamp that says you only get one shot, so I wrote that in by hand.   I've yet to decide what I'm going to say inside; if you have any suggestions please leave them in the comments.

Cherry Lemonade Birthday

I've always wanted to try this card.  The tutorial is on Splitcoaststampers.com  I never tried it in the past as it looked too complicated, but it is really quite simple.  Card stock was odds and ends from Stampin up that I had laying around.  I used Martha Stewart loop punch on the side.  The cherries were cut at two inches from Stampin up card stock.  It's a little plainer than I wanted, but I am happy as this is my first attempt at this type of card.  HB of course stands for Happy Birthday (stamp from Stampin Up).
