Today, I’m sharing a Birthday card that I made for my husband’s 62nd Birthday! The card was created using images and sentiments from Art Impressions – Born To Ride – 5044, Gotta Garden Set – 5000, Birthday Laugh Lines – 5115 and Dance It Out Set – 5278. My husband loves working out in the garden, so I thought this would be a fun card to make him!

To create the card, I began with the card base of 4.25″ x 5.5″ using Hammermill – Premium Cardstock 110 lb. With a Cuttlebug, I die cut Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card with My Creative Time – Rectangle Frame Layers. With Memento – Tuxedo Black ink and my MISTI, I stamped the images onto the die cuts and coloured them in using Copic markers.

I inserted the 2 images back into my MISTI and added the sentiments using Versa Fine – Onyx Black ink. Once this was done, Ranger – Clear Super Fine Detail embossing powder was applied and then heat embossed with a Marvy Uchida – Embossing Heat Tool. Recollections – Black cardstock was cut to the size of 3.75″ x 4.75″ and the images were applied to these using double-sided tape. Both images were then applied to the base card using double-sided tape. Lastly, I used a sentiment from “Hunkydory – Birthdays Perfect Poetry” Foiled Paper Pad and created a backing out of Recollections – Black cardstock for it as well before adhering it to the inside of the card with double-sided tape.

My husband loved his card and I hope you do too!
