More Shells

Today it's the gorgeous shell set again! I'm sooo in love with this set. I think I'm also in love with the idea of summer, sea & shells, but anyway...
This one's a birthday card for a guy friend/co-worker. (Same one with the baby name frame in the last post) I asked Brad (DH) if it was manly enough & he said "It's a handmade card... manly isn't really an option." So this is my pretty, masculine birthday card for a guy who'd understand that. I saw another card with this layout here:

Ingredients:

Chocolate Chip, Creamy Caramel, Very Vanilla - paper; Chocolate Chip, Creamy Caramel, Groovy Guava - ink; Seaside, En Francais, Sassy Suzie, Cheesecloth (discontined), Rough Edges Mini Alphabet - stamp sets; Styled Silver Hodgepodge Hardware, Creamy Caramel gingham ribbon, Label punch, Spiral Punch, Aqua painter, Earth Elements & Neutrals buttons, glue dots - accessories;

I love this card! What punch did you use for the left hand side of the pinkish paper? I am seeing this more and more.

This is the spiral punch. It actually lines up with the spiral bindings of notebooks, so you can use it to add or cover things in notebooks too. I love it! I'm really into the office look for my scrapbooking.
