Not a Baby Anymore....

So my baby brother is 18 today!! :-) It was so hard deciding what type of card to make him! Luckily, my new Verve set and Jacksonbelle Embellishment order of static dp came in this last Saturday. I am still not sold on this card but he probably won't even notice the card....just look for the money inside! :-) This sketch is for today's sketch challenge on SCS.
Recipe:
Stamps: polka dot stars, great expectations (Verve Visual)
Paper: static dp (Crate), chocolate chip
Ink: memento rich cocoa
Accessories: copper brads (American Craft), chocolate chip ribbon, nestabilities,

I think the card is great! I love the stars, I love the colors, I love the paper! And I really like how you turned it on its side AND the rectangle isn't a rectangle! Cool shape!
