You all know how I struggle with a good man card because I just love flowers, ribbons and bling! Well check out this one!!!! I love it and I think it’s a perfect Man Card!!! I will be making multiples of this one to have on hand!!!
I started with a Soft Sky card base. Then I cut a piece of Night of Navy measuring 4″ x 5-1/4″ and White White measuring 3-3/4″ x 5″. On the Whisper White, I stamped the tea cup stain image from the Timeless Textures Stamp Set all over in Soft Sky and Night of Navy. Just randomly stamp and be sure to fall off the sides to make it look like the pattern continues. I adhered this piece to the Night of Navy and then wrapped some Linen Thread around the 2 pieces a few times and tied a knot (no bow since it’s a Man Card)! 😉 I added this piece to the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. You all know I love those things and I like to use them when there is ribbon (or something wrapped around) because it allows for it to still look smooth! For the greeting, I stamped the Happy Birthday in Night of Navy and die cut with the Deco Label Framelits. I brushed the edges with a Sponge Dauber and Soft Sky Ink and attached it with Stampin’ Dimensionals as well! Just perfect!!!!
