A masculine card for a friend who will be celebrating his big birthday this week.
I started by cutting the 'BIRTHDAY' in the 6" x 6" card blank using a Gemini 'Wishing You A Happy Birthday' die. The patterned paper is from the same paper pad I used in yesterday's post, Dovecraft 'Blue Skies'. The yacht is a die from the Memory Box 'Marina Sailboats' set, layered on Memory Box 'Stitched Circle Layers' die cuts. I put a navy square of card inside with a white panel on top for the message.
I am joining in the following challenges:
Wow, amazing card. Love the Birthday die you used.

What a fabulous card Liz and I love the pretty spotted paper and navy for the mats and on the inside behind the cut out 'birthday', and the touches of red look great on the hull of the sweet sailboat and for the stamped sentiment. x
