A coworker will be turning 50 next month and he is having a little bit of a hard time with it. Now this is someone who has a great sense of humor and is also the main culprit behind any (all?) pranks that take place at work. So, of course, we need a fun card for everyone to sign, right?

The main image (Festive Old Friends), is dressed in the birthday boy’s favorite team colors. I made sure to keep the rest of it bright and happy, choosing a bright green for the card front. I tied that in by coloring his hat and the gift a similar green. This is all grounded by a black card-base, sentiment (die cut) and embellishments. The card measures 4-1/2″ x 6″, allowing more room for lots of signatures inside.
