Another manly birthday card

Another manly birthday card
Originally uploaded by HikerCynthia

I'm still making cards along the guidelines of the Less Is More challenge this week (make a masculine, clean and simple card.)

The idea for my card sprang from several different cards posted by cardmakers for the Less is More challenge.

I stamped the main plant image, then stamped it two more times without re-inking. I used a sticky note along the bottom of the card so the plant stems wouldn't show up below the strip of green cardstock. Finally, I stamped Happy Birthday on the far right of the strip, which actually shows up very well in real life. :-)


Supplies:
Paper: Bazzill (green cardstock); The Paper Studio (kraft cardblank)
Stamps: Great Impressions (#G304, plant); Hero Arts (Classic Messages, sentiment)
Ink: Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Forest Moss)
ETC: Glue Glider Pro


I'm off to do a little yard work before it gets too hot to stand around in the sun! ;-) I hope you find time to be crafty today!!
