Today is the first day of the Dare to Get Dirty Challenges at SplitCoastStampers. It's where the former Dirty Girls create & host a week's worth of challenges to inspire you. I am hosting my first challenge later this week.
I decided to combine Dini's Challenge (I can't share that with you … you have to be a Fan Club Member to participate in the challenges) with today' SplitCoastStampers Inspiration Challenge … to be inspired by painted rocks. This is the rock I chose to inspire me.
I loved the colors & the fun striped design (with a few polka dots for good measure).
I created my background with designer paper scraps from my stash, and then I used my MISTI to add the sentiments. I combined green and blue inks (stamping multiple times) until I got the colors I wanted. The stamp set is Big on Birthdays from Stampin' Up.
I finished with a cute cupcake sticker to finish this masculine, mail-able birthday card design.
I'm going with Anything Goes at Seize the Birthday.
PS – Make sure you stop by & help me celebrate my 10 Year Blog Anniversary (there are prizes)



Love that rock, and your card is fab. great job on the inspiration.

Great masculine card, and I love that cupcake sticker! Thanks for playing along at Seize The Birthday 🙂
