I’m adding to my supply of birthday cards with this Cuttlebug embossed background on black cardstock and swiped with white pigment ink. Then taking a section of a Taylored Expressions Time to Fly Combo Club stamp and stencil set and SimonSaysStamp Chunky Happy die, cut out twice, once in the stenciled carstock and once in black for the outline and then the shadow in vellum. Adding a scripty TE Big Happy Add-On sentiment and mounting to the card base my card is completed.
Today, I will be sharing with two challenges:
Double D Challenges: 9th Birthday/Anniversary Challenge at Double D Congratulations to Darlene and Diane and their fabulous design team.
And since my card is really made up of words, I’ll be adding the
Word Power: Word Power January 2025 Challenge
Thanks for stopping in for a peek. I appreciate you and your time. Take care, stay safe, keep warm and prayers for California.

Love this! I need a few masculine cards and this would be perfect! (Women would love it too!).
Wonderful masculine card! I like the inked embossing folder with the shine in the Happy.
A wonderfully created masculine card or for anyone for that matter, perfection at it’s best!
