Happy Birthday Chris











Tomorrow is my son's 19th birthday and I wanted to make him a special card. I was very much out of my comfort zone as masculine cards are not really my forte. I had bought this stamp set from Inkadinkado a while back when it was on sale and decided this might just work for my son's card.

I used SU cardstock/designer paper, Inkadinkado stamp set, SU chocolate chip ink, ribbon, gems and glitter glue. I inked up the edges of the image and the inside of the card to give it a more masculine feel. Overall I am happy with how the card turned out. I hope my son likes it.

  1. I think it came out great! Fun colors, image, and think the inking really added to it. I think its 19 yr old male appropriate! :>
