Hi Everyone
Hope you are enjoying your weekend. The sun is shining here but it is quite windy so not planning on going out anywhere. I have been watching the winter Olympics and was delighted when team GB won a bronze medal this morning for the womens snowboarding. Go team GB.
Today I thought I would share a male card with you.
The balloon images are a set of stamps from Hero Arts that I have had for a couple of years. I stamped the images using distress ink. When the ink was dry I then went over with various shades of distress ink to create the background. I cut out the images and mounted onto paper from Papermania (chronology paper collection). The blue cogs backing paper is from the same collection. I inked around the edges and matted onto some brown card. The birthday sentiment is from Craftwork cards and the cogs are a combination of peel offs and an all occasion die set that I got from Robert Addams.
Thanks for popping by and would love to know what you think. Please feel free to leave a comment as I love reading them.
