STB # 6 : STAMPIN' UP! TEENAGE BOY BIRTHDAY CARD

This week's sketch at Seize the Birthday is to be used to make a masculine birthday card.








I used the sketch to make a card for my son's friend, who is turning 13.  Those of you who are regular visitors to my blog will know that I LOVE making masculine cards.  I've broken open my new packet of Parker's Patterns Designer Series Paper, from the Stampin' Up! Seasonal Catalogue ... and just love it for a 'boy' card.  Here's what I made for the teen:




Stamps: Wacky Wishes, Memorable Moments
Card: Not Quite Navy, Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White
DSP: Parker's Patterns Designer Series Paper
Ink: Crumb Cake and Not Quite Navy stampin' pads, Marina Mist and Cherry Cobbler markers
Other: Window Frame Framelits, Festive Paper-Piercing pack, Natural Trim ribbon, Tasteful Trim XL Bigz die, sponge daubers, Naturals Designer Button, Cherry Cobbler baker's twine, glue dots, stampin' dimensionals, Color Spritzer tool
