Around The World On Wednesday June Blog Hop Let's Hear It For The Boys

Welcome to the Around The World On Wednesday June Blog Hop as we celebrate our theme "Let's Hear it for the Boys". Our talented Design Team members will be sharing their projects and ideas to help inspire you to create your own wonderful projects for the boys in your life, whether they are young or young at heart.

For my card design, I decided to use a new bundle from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog and combine it with a retiring product from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog to create a clean and simple masculine birthday card. I love the images and coordinating dies in the He's All That Bundle and they are perfect for creating amazing guy cards. I chose to use one of the large card bases from the retiring Heart & Home Memories & More Cards & Envelopes because I loved the blue and white stripe for the background to showcase my card design. For my color combination, I chose to use Night of Navy, Bermuda Bay, Basic White and Silver. I love how this card design turned out and it was a great way to use these card bases for masculine cards.

This clean and simple birthday card makes me think of driving around in my car with the radio turned up, singing along (usually off key) to my favorite songs. The Silver embossed focal image has a great classic car that was made for cruising and I just love the feeling this image gives to this card design. I layered the Night of Navy focal layer onto the Bermuda Bay Stitched Square to make it pop and add some color to the card design. I added it to the card base with Stampin' Dimensionals to pop it up and add dimension to the design. To embellish the card, I added some White Baker's Twine around the Bermuda Bay square and added the focal layer over the top with Stampin' Dimensionals. The Silver Foil and Night of Navy banners add a wonderful accent to the design and I added four of the White Classic Matte Dots to the corners of the Bermuda Bay square to complete the design. I love the fresh colors and clean lines of this card design and I think this masculine birthday card would work for guys of all ages.
