"Best Ever" Birthday Card

-
I wanted to enter one more card to the Link Up Party - Beautiful Bows at 3 Girl Jam.  To see all the great projects linked up, please click here.  Have you figured out how much I like their ribbon and new bow maker?  They are fabulous!

Today's card is a masculine birthday card.  Yes, you heard right.  It's a masculine card and I put a bow on it.  It works!  Sometimes you just have to try something to see if it will work out.


See?  I told you that you could make a masculine card with a bow!  Isn't the blue background paper gorgeous?  I created that background and you can find out how by watching the video.

I used...
3 Girl Jam Crinkle Ribbon - Hot Chocolate
Tim Holtz' Life's Possibilities stamp set
TPC Studios Birthday Stamps
Distress Ink - Antique Linen
Versamark Ink
Archival Ink - Black
PaperTrey Ink - Vintage Cream Card Stock
Tim Holtz Coordination Distress paper - blue
Card stock - Bark
MME Lost and Found (?) paper - brown side


Thanks for watching and come back soon for more great projects, tips, and ideas.

Welcome to my little contribution to the Operation Write Home Blog Hop.  I am so happy that you stopped by today.  This is the first time that I've participated in an OWH Blog Hop, but I have hopped to other blogs during these hops before.  I can't wait to see all the inspiration out there. Today, I have chosen the Bonus Sketch #12 to use with this hop.  It is a sketch that my daughter chose to have me make her thank you notes for graduation before I even knew the hop details.  What perfect timing!  Be sure to scroll down to the previous post for a full tutorial and to see my daughter's thank you note.  Same technique and sketch, but a totally different card. I used the following supplies: Operation Write Home Bonus Sketch #12 K and Company - Ancestry.com paper Memento Tuxedo Black ink OWH / Hero Art stamp Stampendous - Happy Messages stamp set Thanks so much for stopping by today. Remember to take some time to enjoy the little things.  Have a
