Man's Birthday Card

My sons birthday was on the 3rd July and we have not been able to catch up with him, mainly because of work and then the scheduled day we were to have dinner with him he had to cancel at the last minute.  So until now I have not been able to post this card, in case he is reading my blog.  We are having dinner with him tonight in the next hour so I think I am safe to post it now.

Simple straight forward and easy card.  The stamp that I have used I got in Lincraft and it is part of the Sullivans stamp range that they stock and I really love this stamp it was reasonably priced, so I think I will get a lot of use out of it. I have stamped the star three times On to Printed paper called Miss Empire Collection Supremacy P1203 with Chocolate Stampin Up pad and clear embossed it, I then used a Kaisercraft stamp called Texture Film Edges and stamped off then stamped on to give the faded look around the edges.  I mounted the whole lot onto cream cardstock then onto copper metalic card then onto deep dark brown card, all the card has been obtained from Doggetts paper suppliers.  The Happy Birthday words creator is unknown as I have had this one for ages, I just snipped the banner and mounted it onto foam for dimension.

I am  entering this into Sieze the Brithday Challenge - Stars & Stripes.
The stars are from Sullivans
The strips are stamped with the Texture Film Edges around the edges of the paper.

Hugs Eliza

What a great masculine card. I love the bold lines of that star stamp. I can see getting lots of use out o that.
