RETIREMENT CARD

 I was recently asked to make a card for a friend's father-in-law.  I came up with this idea of a detachable checklist that could be posted later on the fridge as a reminder to keep busy!

First, I printed out a check list, cut it down and taped it to navy cs.  It was then attached to the card with a phillips-head screw brad.  Since it would swivel, I added a sentiment to be "discovered" underneath.  Silver cording was tied on the side.

For the inside, I used a Simon Says Stamp die for the "you" and a phrase from the coordinating stamp set.  The wavy congratulations is from a wooden Hero Arts stamp set.

Also, for this post I used a piece of white foam board for the photo.  Since it stands on its own, it works perfectly!
