This month I chose an image from Ikes Art entitled WTF.  This is not what I used on my card.  I used this image as a birthday card for 'The Bob'. (hubby)  So this is what I came up with.

Yes that says What's The Fuss? (like how I did that)
The image of the man is colored with Prismacolor
pencils and I fussy cut it.  The blue card is AC and
the other paper is scraps.  This is what is called
a bridge card.

The card is a A2 (4.25 by 5.50 inches) and scored
 in the middle like a normal card.
  Place the card on it's side and slice from the
fold down at 1 1/2 inches on each side.  You
end up with 3 panels to decorate. If you look closely,
the man is attached to a inch wide acrylic strip
which is glued down underneath each 1 1/2 sides.
Next I printed the saying on more scrap and attached
it to the middle front.  

Here is a picture with the side panels turned over.
See there is the front panel without the man.

Flipping the front panel over this is the inside.  Yes
my dear hubby is going to be 81 in July.  (May-
december romance.  He is 19 years older than myself)
I don't think I can get 81 candles on a 9 inch apple pie!
Maybe just a cute 81 years young topper?  I'll take a
pic with what I come up with.

Well that's a wrap for this month!  Now in July I have big news.  So make sure you visit me on or around the first of the month.

Stay Safe, Stay Healthy and be very Blessed,
