I've been struggling to make a birthday card for a male friend, and this is finally what I've come up with. I decided to use the ISMAKI challenge sketch # 16. The optional challenge was to use 4 different matching patterned papers. So I used Basic Grey Sublime paper pack for this card and backed it onto a piece of Stampin' Up card stock. The corner was stamped with one of my favourite set of stamps at the moment, Basic Grey Two Scoops Swirlie stamps. I added a computer printed image coloured with watercolour pencils and a Crafty Individual stamp coloured with Ranger Distress Ink Mustard Seed and Dried Marigold. The card was finished with ribbon and buttons. I hope my friend will like it, to make up for it being very over due.
Now I've got to start thinking about another male birthday coming up soon. Why is it so hard to think of ideas for male cards?
