I used this week's terrific sketch to make a card for my godson, Robert's 30th birthday. I thought this text from the Natural Beauty stamp set could be for a male or female as we all have dreams, inspiration, love and hope. After stamping text I sponged this panel with Pumice Stone Distress Ink. I ran white c/s and dp panels through my Cuttlebug and added the buttons and numbers.
Thank you so much for taking the time to look!

This couldn't be a more perfect birthday card for your 30 year old Godson, Sue! I love how you personalized it (which I only think about doing for children)! Beautiful texture and sponging~

LOVE your birthday card Sue! Your embossing and the horizontal lines on your square panels look so awesome together AND the horizontal lines on the buttons too! That is a VERY cool collage stamp and I love your mostly B&W color palette with just a bit of tan! FANTASTIC take on the sketch and SUPER masculine birthday card!!!

Sue, a wonderful masculine b'day card with the sketch. Your color choices are great for a "manly" feeling and the bg wood grain embossing adds a terrific texture.
