Masculine Birthday Card

I needed to make a Masculine birthday card, and saw this sketch at this week's challenge at Mojo Monday Blog . Here is my card. The recipient is a Pittsburgh Penguins' Fan (NHL). I don't like "Black & Gold" but it's Team's color so I can't change. lol :-) Hockey Jersey is from Stamps N'More which I bought last summer at stamp convention. I've never used this stamp til now :-) The skate is from INKADINKADO. It's a Roller skate but since he plays roller hockey, it's fine :-) I stamped Lawn Fawn's Cheveron pattern and trimmed one side, to make it close to the sketch. The sentiment is from Penny Black. All stamped images were heat embossed. The hockey jersey is adhered with pop up glue dots for a bit of dimention.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Enjoy the rest of the WARM weekend! :)

"masculine" Birthday Card with 4 meanings in it!

This card has 4 meanings. First, the recipient loves Hockey. The snoopy ice hockey player stamp comes with the puck in a design, and I inked that puck only, many times, to make this "frame". Ice hockey skates is from Jolee's. I attached it with dimentional foam but also attached the baker's twine, to look like it's "hanging". Secondly, the color combination of black & gold is Pittsburgh Penguins' Color and black & gold (more like Yellow) is also Steeler's color. I bought this background paper, black with yellow random spot. The seconcd pic. shows the inside of this card. The recipient always wants to claim "he is the KING", and I found this image of crown & the sentiment in my CD, so I printed it out, added the gold pearls, traced the image of "KING" with Golden gel pen. I used the nesties to cut the gold color CS, layered it under the printed out white CS. Well, that's the 3rd meaning on this card for this recipient. Adding this "Penguin" cheerleader with pom pom in gold is the final touch to the card for "Pittsburgh PENGUINS" fan! LOL! I luv this card! LOL!
