Big Birthday Wishes

This is a perfect card for the "no frills" type of guy.  I used white for the card base and topped it with a chocolate brown/ivory woven pattern paper (I don't know the brand of the paper; I got it from a paper shop that was discontinuing a lot of their paper).  I rounded the right hand corners and added a Dark Chocolate border on the left side made with card edgers.  Then come the layers - all 5 of them - in Vintage Cream and Pure Poppy paper, the last one with the sentiment.  The regular squares are put on with pop dots to add dimension.  The final step was adding just a bit of twine so it wouldn't be too "frilly".  Happy Birthday Joe!
