Kraft Birthday Card

Today I’m combining 2 challenges – one from Seize the Birthday toppings challenge to use a kraft card base and the other from Tic, Tac, Toe #022 where I chose the diagonal of stripes, ribbon & layers.  You can’t beat this recipe for a great masculine card.

I took a bit of liberty with the ribbon idea where I pleated a piece of DSP to look like a piece of pleated ribbon.

I needed a birthday card for one of my nephews so went to a stamp set for a boy who loves music – Reverse Confetti ‘Inner Rock Star’. I stamped the guitar and records then fussy cut them out, stamped the sentiment on to a banner, used the eraser end of a pencil to create the white dots for the background and then layered all the components with dimensionals and stamped the musical notes for a finishing effect.

Ingredients:

• Misc. Kraft Card Base
• Stamp – Reverse Confetti – Inner Rock Star
• Ink – Stampin Up Basic Black, Marina Mist and Craft White
• Misc paper scraps from my stash.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.
