Manly Birthday Card

Hi Everyone!
I wanted to show you this card I made for my boyfriends birthday tomorrow. He had been buying a lot of old cars lately so I thought this one was pretty appropriate! And guess what? This isn't a stamp!
All of the paper is Stampin' Up! I used the Naturals White, Crumb Cake and Chocolate Chip card stock and the brass eyelets to decorate. The Happy Birthday stamp came from Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set and I punched it out with the Word Window punch and the label is punched with Chocolate Chip. BUT the car I copied and pasted to a word file from google images, printed it and then colored it with chalks! I just couldn't find the right stamp in my stash that would fit what I wanted to do, so this was a quick and easy fix. Not sure how long it will last being on printer paper but as long as it makes it to tomorrow, I'm fine with that! I hope you enjoy. Please leave a comment and let me know what you think!

"Manly" Thank You Cards!





I was asked to make some manly thank you cards and here is what I came up with.......I got my inspiration from Schnauser Crafts Creations and changed it up a bit! I used the Word Play stamp set from Stampin" Up! as well as the decorative label punch, cajun craze, baja breeze, very vanilla and old olive card stock. I used the lattice embossing folder for the texture and the star punch for the stars (duh!)
You can check out the video on how to make this card on You Tube! Subscribe to Croppers Couture and watch them all! I plan on making more videos soon, I just need to do some fine tuning and hopefully I'll get better at it! Enjoy!!

The other cards I made for my 'manly' card request are pictured below! If you have any questions or comments please post them!!


I hope you like them!
