Birthday Greetings


Hello and happy Sunday! Today's card was created for the latest The Paper Players card challenge. To create my card I started by cutting down a panel of cold press water color paper. Using my Tim Holtz distress inks I water colored a beach scene. Using Gina K Designs black ink and the Stampin' UP Wetlands stamp set I stamped the birds and the sentiment. I wrapped some ivory twine from American Crafts at the bottom of the panel and popped it up using some 3M foam tape. I mounted it onto a slightly larger piece of white cardstock for an additional border and then adhered the whole panel onto an A2 cardbase made out of Stampin' UP crumb cake cardstock. Love this clean and simple masculine card. Thank you for stopping by my blog today!

Beautiful Celeste - sometimes simple is best! Such a serene waterside scene and the addition of the twine is a neat added detail. Thanks for playing along with our seaside themed challenge over at The Paper Players this week!
