Happy birthday to a classic! What a classic sentiment for all those classic men you may know! It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players!
This week, the sweet Jaydee is hosting our Theme challenge. For our stamping pleasure, she has selected “Birthdays”. What a great theme! Can’t we always use a birthday card? I know I can…especially masculine ones. I created this one using the He’s All That suite of products. I can’t wait to see what YOU create!
Colors Of The Day
The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
One of my favorite sketches is the one I used today. It is perfect for showing off coordinating patterns of designer series papers, like these from the He’s The Man collection. I selected the Cajun Craze pattern, with its classic cars, since it pairs perfectly with the sentiment. After that, the rest was easy. A very subtle dark plaid was perfect for the large background pattern, while the Sahara Sand pattern brought out the Sahara Sand color of the cars. A “pop” of color was provided by three stars, which are part of the die cut sheets included with the paper. To add interest, rustic metallic dots were used to embellish each star.
