There's a challenge at CardzTV with Mary Clear Stamps. It's called "My Guy". (Make a project for a masculine birthday or for Father's Day). I decided to make a birthday card for my husband. (His birthday is at the beginning of July).
Finished Card: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
Materials:
Cardstock: White, Yellow, Orange, Green, Lime Green, Black and Patterned Paper
Cricut Cartridge Simply Charmed Fish 1, page 41 (Base, Layer 1 Base, Layer 2 Base, Layer 3 Base and Shadow)
CardzTV with Mary Clear Stamps It's a Guy Thing, "Fishin' You a Happy Birthday!"
Black Pigment Ink
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder Tiny Mosaic
Fiskars 3 in 1 Corner Punch
Light Blue Chalk
Mounting Tape
He loves to go fishing but his schedule generally doesn't allow it. (Maybe this summer).
On the sentiment, after I punched the two corners, I chalked around the edges. I single mounted the fish and each layer of the fishing reel. I thought the background paper was perfect. Don't you think so?
Well, head on over to CardzTV and join the challenge. Mary is giving away a set of stamps (your choice) to the winner (announced on Monday). Good luck!
I would love for you to be a follower. I also love reading your comments. Thanks for dropping by.
