We are winding down the year a bit early here at the Seize the Birthday challenge blog. Things tend to get a bit hectic around the holidays so we're going to take an extended break until January. Shirley is our hostess and she's chosen Masculine as our final Topping of 2026. I cannot understand why but creating manly cards has always been difficult for me. Today was no exception. I'm not particularly happy with this one but that's how it is when the mojo just isn't there.
This is an older die set that I've had in my stash quite awhile but it's my first time using it. It's actually designed to be a box card but I used only the front pieces as the focal point to my card. The final size is 4.25" x 6.0". The colors used were two shades of brown, tan and brushed gold cardstocks. The background papers are extremely old and as of now, unknown to me. If I had to guess I'd say PaperTrey ink. After assembly it was just a matter of stamping a simple sentiment and I called this one done.
Supplies:
Spellbinders - Retro Television die set
Clearly Besotted - Sentimental Type stamp set
old designer paper
I personally plan to take a little break to create some holiday cards and then will be back to work on our upcoming 2027 challenges. I invite you to play along with us in the gallery. The Topping is optional but your card must reflect a birthday theme/sentiment.
Thanks for visiting!
Jules
