Mountain Birthday

Hello Friends!

Today I am sharing a card I made for a new challenge posting. Check out
Paper Pleasures and Stamping Delights!
Each Wednesday we are challenged to make our own project with no sketch or other challenge...just our own ideas! Love it! Be sure to check out the details and come play along! You are asked to submit only two projects a month!

I need a masculine birthday card this month so I started with black card stock. I stamped everything in white SU Craft ink and added the birds with white gel pen! The inside reads, "Hope your special day has you soaring!".

Thanks so much for stopping by and please do come by often. Lots of challenges in the works!

Blessings to you,
Vicki

  5. That is such an interesting challenge. I guess we do get too caught up in doing sketches sometimes that we forget to come up with our own ideas. But you did great taking on that challenge! I just love how this card looks like a beautiful sketch! You should tell people you drew everything yourself :D Fabulous!
