Paper Players Birthday Card




I thought I would use this week's Paper Players challenge for my husband's birthday card. His birthday is this Friday . I tried a new color combo and don't know if the combo is appropriate for a masculine card. - mmmm.  I like the combination and am definitely going to use it again in the future, but may try something a little more "manly" for my man. I love, love this simple and fabulous layout provided by the Paper Players Challenge. This is definitely one for the file.

Stamps - Bring on the Cake, Birthday Bakery (hostess)
Ink - marina mist, pumpkin pie, concord crush, old olive and basic black
Paper - Play Date DSP, concord crush, old olive, marina mist, pumpkin pie and whisper white card stock
Accessories - pumpkin pie brads, curly label punch, 1" circle punch, 1 1/4" circle punch, dimensionals
