Seize The Birthday # 10

Wow I'm proud of myself.  I've gone from no posting to two in one day!!!!!   This is my first time entering a challenge over at Seize The Birthday. I have been following their challenges for a couple of weeks and it looks to be a fun challenge site,but this is the first chance I've had to join in.  Hoping to make it a weekly event for myself.  We can never have enough birthday cards.  This week they have a sketch for us to follow and asked us to make a masculine card.  Whenever I look at this stamp I think to myself "this is a good guy stamp".  Hope some guy thinks so also.

As usual my photo does not show colors exactly accurate.     The colors are Crumb Cake and Cherry Cobbler, both from SU.  The stamp is by Inkadinkadoo and I embossed it with Gilded Ivory from Powder Keg.  The sentient is from SU and cut out with a SU die.I also embossed the Cherry Cobler paper with the SU Stripes folder.  I used linen thread and just tied a knot for my embellishment.   I am pretty pleased with the way this one turned out. It will go in my next OWH box.   I thank you for stopping by again.  Your visits are very much appreciated.  See you again soon.

  4. Donna, your card is beautiful. I get so wrapped up in coloring with copics that I forget how beautiful cards are with embossing and I really love what you did with this. I have that image so thanks for inspiring me.
