One of my goals for 2016 is to make more masculine birthday cards and more masculine cards in general. I set this goal last year but failed miserably so I'm trying harder this year! Here's a masculine birthday card I made with a delicious pre-coloured image from Limited Runs called Triple Cake. I added Glossy Accents to the cherry, nuts, and syrup. It's so yummy looking!
The sentiment is a clear stamp from Avery Elle - Cake and Candles. I followed the sketch over at Tuesday Morning Sketches:
You know I had to add a kitty! The kitty is heading for the cake hehe! Die-cuts used were Simon Says Stamp Stitched Rectangles and Impression Obsession Cat Set. I added a strip of wide red glitter tape and a few brown sequins.
There are Chocolate Cake Day challenges at Die-Cuttin' Diva's and The Outlawz Festive Friday so I'm joining there, as well as these other fun challenges:
