Well, it's been a few weeks since I posted! I can't believe how quick the year is going-it's already mid May! Anyway, I'll try and be more efficient and upload a few more photos! We made this card at Stamp Club on Friday. Most people I talk to find it difficult to create boy or masculine cards, so I thought I'd tackle the boy one first! The Whale Wishes set is new in this years catalogue-it's such a cute little set. I've set myself the challenge to create a girl card with it too, so I can see how versatile it is! Here's the recipe:
* STAMPS: Whale Wishes, It's Your Birthday, On The Spot (background stamp)
* CARD STOCK: Brilliant Blue, Real Red, Whisper White, Yo yo Yellow
* INK: Brilliant Blue, Real Red, Green Galore
* ACCESSORIES: Word Window Punch, Corner Rounder Punch, Glitter Glue (non SU!), Sanding Blocks
I punched out the first window for the Happy Birthday in the middle, then carefully slid it along to make the window longer. I used a sanding block to smooth away any rough edges. I find the Bold Brights colour family is great for little boy cards-they are so vibrant! I've used the glitter glue to enhance the bubbles above the fish, however, the camera hasn't really shown this up. I'll be back later to post some other cards, and also try a girl variation using this set!
