LOVELY AS A TREE Masculine Card

Now that I'm coming down from the hype of Stampin' Up! Convention, I have a bit of catching up to do with birthday cards.  I've already apologised to my much-loved brother for not getting his card in the mail before going to Sydney ... he knows I love him!

Here is the card I made for my brother, Dean.  Whipped out my trusty Lovely As A Tree stamp set, that I think is great for men's cards.  Other items I love to use on masculine cards are the Sanded background stamp and my Colour Spritzer tool.  These got a work-out, big-time, along with a sponge dauber!

Dean's bday card

Stamps: Sanded, Inspired by Nature, Lovely As A Tree, On Your Birthday

Card: Naturals Ivory, Basic Black, Chocolate Chip, Always Artichoke

Ink: Chocolate Chip and Always Artichoke stampin' pads and markers, Sahara Sand and Basic Black stampin' pads

Other: Top Note die, sponge dauber, Colour Spritzer tool, Jumbo Eyelets (set with Crop-a-Dile), Large Oval punch, edge distressing tool



Right, better go get this card in the mail!
