Birthday Card with a Twist for Funday Friday

Good Morning and welcome to the weekend :) It's been a odd week this week. Ever have one those weeks where you planned out what your going to do and then it just doesn't happen! Yep my weekly planner said Doing December Daily all week this week and that just didn't happen. But, I did the tractor club's newsletter folded and mailed out to the membership, whew the last step in my volunteering heavily for the club, makes me wonder who is taking that over :) I wish them well...
So on topic today is Funday Friday over at Jo's Scrap Shack :) Today the theme is Use Neglected Tools (Use a tool you've been neglecting to create a card, layout or project!) and the sponsor of this challenge is Fitztown. I used their Garden 7 digital stamp for my card today:

 

Isn't this a wonderful digital stamp, just loved it when I seen it, it makes me think of spring :) So the neglected tool I used was the GEO-Dies (GD-2) for the bottom border. I really don't know why I don't use these more often they create a nice effect on the card. I bought these probably 4 years ago and they sit in the drawer, well I think it's time to get them and put them to use (thinking scraps would be a good use for these :)

I colored the Garden 7 digital stamp with Spectrum Noir pens (despite what the picture shows the coloring is more of a hot pink and purples), die-cut it with spellbinders Label 9 die and inked the edges with SU Baked Brown Sugar ink. The background paper, the diecut paper and the sentiment sticker/alphas came from my current counterfeit kit. (the end of the month is drawing near and haven't made a dent in that kit!) I think this just may go to my sister's house for her birthday in August this year. Thanks for stopping by today......
