This week's awesome challenge is hosted by the lovely, Amanda Havon, our Team Coordinator! This week, Amanda is challenging you to create a birthday card or project (FLLC192). Yup... it's a simple as that! Here is what I created for this week's challenge...
Country Birthday
For my card this week I knew I needed to make a masculine card for my brother-in-law's birthday coming up at the end of the month so I began by making a Surprise Pop-Up card. You can see the Splitcoast tutorial on how to create your own card here.
I first die cut my oval shape using my Spellbinder's Classic Oval Nestabilities die out of Flourishes Classic Ivory Cardstock. Then I stamped the glorious "horse and pasture" image and matching sentiment form the Flourishes "Country Road" stamp collection.
At the button of my pull-up tag, I stamped the "barn and windmill" image, also from the "Country Road" stamp collection and then I stamped the "Happy Birthday to You" over top of it from the NEW "Sentimental Favorites" set in navy ink to match my top image.
I also wanted to decorate the inside of my card with a message so I stamped the "Best Wishes" sentiment from the "Sentimental Favorites" set as my card's finishing touch!
Take a peek at what my fellow Timeless Tuesday designers have created for today…
Thanks for joining me today. I hope you'll join us this week for our birthday inspired challenge!
