Hello and happy first Friday of July.
She provides a new freebie digi for you every month, but you can use any stamped image.
Go to the link I provided for the complete challenge rules.
And here is my inspiration make, using Pattie's Hang Thirty digi.
This is going to my nephew for his 30th birthday.
In PSE, I added the text to the surfboards and above and below them before printing out and coloring the image with Promarkers in summery colors.
I chose this Splitcoaststampers sketch for my A7 layout design.
I added a sun and clouds to the top using Lawn Fawn dies cut from white card. The sun is colored with yellow Promarkers. I also added a striped ribbon from my stash.
Inside, a punny sentiment I composed and framed in PSE and printed out.
On back, I used Cosmo Cricket TV Dinner collection designer paper.
It lookes like surfboards to me and the colors complement the front.
I added a strip leftover from cutting the Kraft card base and a stamped and punched siggie.
Angled shot to show the little flowers I die cut using one of the TH Sizzix Tropical Thinlit dies and their centers dotted with Viva Decor Pearl Paint Pens.
I needed a little something white to balance the white cloud at top and I don't think they hurt a masculine card too much.

These surfboards are very cute for a summer birthday. Or maybe in some places a birthday anytime of year. I really like the ribbon with the sun and cloud above it. I hope you had a lovely JUly 4 holiday. And thanks for joining us at TIOT with this card. This is about as summer as you can get. :) hugs-Erika

ReplyDeleteYour nephew's 30th birthday card looks fantastic! The vibrant colors and summery theme with surfboards and sun are perfect for the occasion. Using Promarkers to color the image and adding the sun and clouds with Lawn Fawn dies adds a cheerful touch. The punny sentiment inside, framed in PSE, adds a personalized and humorous element, while the use of Cosmo Cricket designer paper on the back ties everything together nicely. Great job balancing the design with the little flowers and ribbon accentuating the overall look!
