Masculine for Seize the Birthday

 


Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Barbara has chosen a masculine theme for this fortnight.


or build up your birthday stash with our anything goes option.


Our party guest Claire along with my team mates have some great inspiration for you so I hope you can play along.

I still have my old typewriter, although it's rarely used these days.
 I love how detailed this die set is with the cute little sentiments!

I diecut it from scraps of black, blue and white card and coloured the silver parts with a jelly pen.
The background is embossed with Stampin Up's time worn type, and the sentiment was cut from black, inked with versamark and clear embossed.
The blue mat is a brushos scrap. So I've used up a bit from my scrap basket with this card!

I'm linking up to these challenges:

Krafty Chicks, all occasions


Supplies:
Sugarpea Designs just my type stamp and die; Stampin Up time worn type embossing folder; Creative Expressions stacked happy birthday die; silver jelly pen; versamark ink & clear ep; versafine clair nocturne ink.

Thanks for visiting,

What a great masculine card Cathy and I love that vintage typewriter, and a wonderful complementary EF to go with it in the background and a very apt sentiment in the typewriter as well as the lovely die cut 'Happy Birthday'...a brilliant card. x

Love your background embossing on this one. It's perfect! Is your old typewriter manual or electric? I wish I'd kept mine.
