Daddy's Birthday 2011

This is the card I made for my dad's birthday. This Mojo Monday sketch gave me great inspiration. I thought the circle portion looked like a sun, so it led me to create the below card. My dad loves to mow the grass. It's his time away from all the women in the family. Thanks to Jennifer for letting me borrow her Tractor Riley stamp and Grass Edge Punch. I think the grass punch effect really made the card.
