Masculine Birthday card

Happy Monday. I hope everyone weathered the storms on the East Coast and are making it back to normal. Here in Virginia we were fortunate not to have too much wind and rain and school resumed for the kids today.

So on to the card for today. I created a masculine birthday card on the fly when my husband came home from his morning walk yesterday and said his cousin's birthday was that very day. I didn't have one that would fit this recipient so I went to crafting and created one in time for his afternoon walk.  The recipient seemed to enjoy it and I was happy I could create a card so quickly.

Check out the project below and let me know what you think.

I also used a Momenta cutting template for the word happy.

Instructions:

1.  Create your card base 4 1/4" x 11" and score at 5 1/2".

2.  Run the Crumb Cake card stock (4” x 5 ¼”) panel through the Dotted Rectangles die and adhere this to the card base.

3.  Cut a piece of the dsp to measure 3 ¾” x 5” and adhere to the Crumb Cake layer.

4.  Cut another piece of dsp ( I used the reverse side of the previous piece) to 2 ¼” x 3 ¼” and a piece of the Tranquil Tide card stock.  On the card stock piece use the Crumb Cake ink and the stencil and add the ink on the panel.  Adhere these 2 pieces together and then pop  up with fun foam and adhere in the center of the card front.

5.  Die-cut the numbers out of the same dsp used on the 3rd layer and again with fun foam.  Adhere the two together and then adhere one higher than the other on the front of the card. Die-cut the word happy 3 times with adhesive sheets behind each (makes it chipboard-like).  place at the top of the numbers on the front of the card.

6.  Using the Crushed Curry card stock backed with adhesive sheets and the stars from the Mini Treat Bag die set, run through the die cutting machine.  Place 3 of the stars at the top left and bottom right corners and then place on on the card front.

I hope you have enjoyed today's project and will check back often for more inspiration.  Thank you for visiting.

Hang Your Stocking Christmas card 7-28-19

Hello crafters and welcome to some Christmas inspiration on the blog today. I am in the process of using up my stash and making as many cards as possible before the hustle bustle of the season begins.

Here Comes The Ice Cream Man- layout

Hello and welcome to today's post. I have a layout share that features the Echo Park Playground collection and the Heidi Swapp Project Life kit along with some exclusive alphas from the June Hip Kit. This layout was hard to put together for the challenge over at Sketches in Thyme (#205) but loved the collection I chose for the photos I was using. I had taken my son over to the mall to go to the indoor playground and while waiting for it to open he spotted the powered ice cream truck that made noise. Of course Michael just had to ride and he looks like he's really enjoying it. Take a look at the project below and let me know what you think. . Supplies used: Echo Park Playground collection, June (main) Hip Kit alphas, Heidi Swapp Project Life kit (the stars), Cherry on Top DSP (SU), Summer Starfruit cardstock for the background(SU), ATG tape runner and Mini glue dots. I hope you have enjoyed today's project and will check back often for more inspiration. Tha...
