Seize The Birthday | The Challenge #74



Hello Everyone!!

I'm stopping in to share a card I made for my son's 17th birthday.  Not sure where the time has gone...he finishes up his junior year of high school in a couple days and will be getting his drivers license next month.  

I played along with a couple challenges....Seize the Birthday and The Challenge!  The topping this week over at STB was to add dimension to your cards.  As you can see...I popped up EVERY layer on the card!  I love doing this as it really adds that little something to a plain card.  The Challenge hosted a masculine theme with an inspiration photo.  I was inspired by the color black along with the circle shape of the mirror and steering wheel.

 Supplies:
Paper: Black CS (Recollections), Black Jack 6x6 Pad (Recollections); Stamps: Birthday To You Plain Jane (Verve Stamps); Ink: Black (Simon Says Stamps); Tools: Pierced Square Stax (Die-Namics), Scor-Buddy, Paper Trimmer (Fiskars), Big Shot (Sizzix); Other: Metal Dots, ATG Tape, Foam Tape


Happy Stamping!!
