Hello and welcome crafty friends!
I took a break from making Christmas cards
and made another birthday card,
combining a few challenges:
I started with creating my main panel using the Facets stencil
and blending a couple colors of orange ink. I die cut the
HB2U and glued onto that, then adhered that panel to my card
base with foam squares.
This card fit into a number of challenges:
Seize the Birthday #337 (Disclaimer - technically I used
alpha/number dies to create my sentiment, so if that doesn't
qualify, I'm ok with that. I still had fun making this!)
Thanks for visiting!
Supplies:
Stamps: Honey Bee Stamps - Mini Messages Sassy Birthday (inside card)
Ink: Taylored Expressions - Pumpkin, Cotton Candy; Memento - Tuxedo Black
CS: Cardstock Warehouse; Neenah; Taylored Expressions
Accessories: STAMPlorations - Facets stencil; Honey Bee Stamps - Narrow Upper Case Alphas; Hero Arts - rectangle dies; MISTI
Adhesives: Scrapbook Adhesives - tape runner & foam squares; Bearly Art glue
What a great way to combine all those challenges, Chris. The simple sentiment works great with the geometric stenciling. Thanks for sharing your card with us at Just Us Girls.
ReplyDeleteChris, I love that you used those colors for something other than Halloween. The geometric design coupled with the alpa-numeric sentiment is fabulous! And it would work in a number of color combinations, but I really like it in orange and black. Thank you so much for playing along with us at Color Hues!
ReplyDeleteI don’t see why this wouldn’t qualify. It is a die cut sentiment, right? I live your stenciled background. I’m hopeful for holiday cards. Lol! Thanks so much for playing with Color Hues
ReplyDeleteI love this stencilled background in the two tones of orange and with the fun birthday sentiment over the top...a brilliant card Chris. x
ReplyDeleteA simple, but bright and cheerful birthday card. Love the effect of the two shades of orange. Thank you so much for joining us at Seize the Birthday challenge!
