Boys Cards



Hi Everyone, been busy making a couple of cards. So I have put the pictures up for you with instructions. I have used my favorite Tim Holtz inks and bazzill. I have made these cards as I have a 40th birthday to go to this weekend and needed a card. I plan on adding a clear '40' to the top right of the card with the tools on it. Just have to use your imagination on that one.
Both cards are using the same principal but just different sizes and stamps. Easy enough to adapt to any theme and colour scheme.
I hope you enjoy making these cards.
If you have any questions or need to order any of the products please let me know.



For this card I used Parakeet Bazzill (4222) for the base card 9"x5". Score and fold at 4.5".
Pinecone Bazzill (4223) 4"x3 3/4"
Parakeet 4"x 1/2"
Oatmeal (9690) cardstock A5 4"x1 1/2"
and 1/2"x2"
Distress all edges of card with Walnut Stain Distress Ink (tim19534) and a sponge.
Stamp the Soccer (998LH) stamp in Peeled Paint Distress Ink (tim20233) over entire background of the parakeet.
Stamp the soccer stamp on the oatmeal card stock with the Walnut Stain.
Stamp "your the best" stamp from the mini messages friends (4260KK). Use a black gel pen to doodle the dots. The whole card is put together with 6mm supertape (1708). Basically I like to use super tape for most things because it is strong, no mess or drying time and simple to use.
Assemble the card as per the example.



This card uses Vintage Photo Distress Ink (tim19527), Parakeet Bazzill (4222), Nutmeg Bazzill (4462) and Lemonade Bazzill (4501), Tool boarder unmounted stamp (1700LH) and the 'happy birthday' from the mini messages friends (4260KK).

I hope you enjoy making these cards, I know I did!
