Birthday Card For Male using CTMH Urban Paper, Sangria Paper and CTMH Art Philosophy Cartridge

Hello friends.   I am celebrating my 600 Followers and 3 years with Close To My Heart; and would love for all of you to participate in my Blog Celebration.  Click here for the blog post. Join my followers on Google Friend Connect, leave a comment on my blog celebration post and link your blog with Mr. Linky.  No blog, no problem.  Leave me a comment stating that you don't have a blog. I will add you to my list manually.  

I am giving away at least 25 wonderful prizes; maybe more; depending on number of entries. Anyone who wins outside US will qualify for digi stamps from my wonderful sponsors; as I am not allowed to send CTMH products outside the US.  I am doing a separate drawing for a $25 shopping spree of qualified CTMH products; for everyone who orders more than $50 from my CTMH website during my blog celebration.  

Thank you to everyone who has joined my blog celebration and/or purchased at least $50 to get into my grand prize drawing.  I appreciate all of you very much!

I created this adorable card using the precolored version of Imagine That Digis By Kris Ted and Trudy's Wagon and sentiments for a birthday card; for my brother in law.  I use Kris's images all the time; but found this cutie while searching her shop for a birthday card pertaining to a cow.  I love it!  I uploaded the colored PNG version to my Cricut Design Space; which prints and cuts to the Cricut Explore.  So easy and so much fun!  I cut an extra one for the cow farmer inside too.  I found the corn on Cricut Disney Pooh & Friends Cartridge and the pumpkin on the NEW Cricut Artistry Cartridge.  I hope you enjoy it!
