Inside, the new Bam Box allows the camper to spring up and is also the bumper that keeps the card front in the easel position. I have had the camper die for over a year, and can't believe this is the first time I've used it. Sheesh ...
I rooted through my embellishments looking for a small dog sticker, but most of the ones I had were too big for the camper. However - the Doodlebug Designs one fit and it was blue so matched the card!
Inside, I added another panel of the patterned paper - this one features a campfire in the foreground with mountains in the distance. I stamped an older Funny Bones sentiment from my stash.
This card was very meaningful, since not only was it a milestone birthday for my hubby, we had just bought a camper!! So the sentiment, while funny and true - hit home as our bank account is still in shock. Ha.
The card started out as 5 x 6.5" - it was a card and envelope set I picked up at Michaels many years ago - but I trimmed it to 5 x 6.25" as that worked better with the 6 x 6" patterned paper.
... one more look ... I gave the card to him on his birthday last month, and it is still out on display. He really liked it!
A couple of times recently, I was asked how many cards I make but I didn't have a clear number. Since a lot of my posts include more than a single card or project, I thought it would be fun to keep track this year.
