Turning 40!

Good morning all!  It's a new challenge today at Paper Crafting Journey and this time our theme is Make it Manly.  Hopefully we can provide you with some inspiration for your masculine cards, and we really look forward to peeking at your creations too!


Today I've used the Cupcake Celebration image provided by this week's sponsor, Kenny K.  They have plenty of images for the guys on your list, and this one worked out perfectly for my needs. I've coloured with copics, adding stickles to the candies on the cake for some added sparkle.

You will see some stenciling done here, for that fancy faux stitching and also for the lettering of 'The Big One'.  We definitely have to remind someone when they turn 40, otherwise they may be thinking they are 39 again!  lol

Supplies used:
Basic Grey papers - Clippings collection
Spellbinders dies -  Romantic Rectangles and Inverted Scalloped Circles
Other - little peel off stickers instead of gems and a bit of DI for the edges

Thanks for visiting and wishing you good luck in the challenge.
