Hello friends! Karla back today with a very special card that I gave to my hubby this week for his, gulp, 50th birthday!! He is definitely rocking 50, and I wanted to give him a fabulous card to celebrate. I pulled out the Wild Whisper Masculine Collection and my Cricut Maker and got to work!
I love the patterns and colours in this collection and I absolutely love using these papers to diecut! They are such a wonderful weight to use in my Cricut, and I planned out the card using files in Design Space, which you can find HERE. I added a Stardust Glitter Gel pen and Glossy Accents to the 'rocks' diecut and glued on the other diecut images after using the beautiful Pineapple Paradise Embossing Powder around the edges of the shaped diecut layer.
I added one of the coordinating flair buttons to the top of the card - I thought the sentiment on it was so fitting! and glued on some of the fantastic matching sequins. I even took a bit of Tim Holtz Bronze Mica Mist and splatted it on for one more touch of bling - 'cause what's a birthday without bling?!!
Inside, I added a frame from the cut apart 12x12 page in the paper pack and stamped a Happy Birthday sentiment along with bottom. I love how this also coordinates with the flair on the front ;) Then, I used the negative guitar image from the front of the card to decorate the envelope, adding a few more sequins and mist. My husband is a true crafter's husband and even patiently waited for me to photograph this card before giving it to him, lol. He's an amazing guy, and I definitely felt blessed to be able to make this for him. He absolutely loved it, and had a wonderful birthday!
