Pine Cone Birthday

Hello everyone. 

This card is a just because I needed to make a card for a friend. You know being a cardmaker comes in handy when you need a card and you don't have any on hand. I had donated a whole lot of my cards to a charity and I wasn't left with many for myself. Then I realised I needed a card and nothing I had left was suitable.

And this is the card that I have made for my friend.

I went with these colours because I needed a male card and he loves the outdoors. So I thought that these papers suited for making this card. But as most times I started with a sketch and I used this one from Operation Write Home. It's a favourite of mine.

And as has become my habit I have included the sketch with my measurements to make an A6 card front. All of the matts are .5cm bigger than the measurements mentioned. I used of the heart I used this pine cone sticker. It felt good to make a male themed card and to also use up some of my long forgotten stash of papers. But I was able to do some silver embossing for the sentiment on a small piece of pattern paper.

Thanks for stopping by and looking at my card today. Please consider leaving a comment on my post just to let me know that you stopped by and I can visit your blog as well. And as always before you go I would like to leave you with this last thought

These minion guys always crack me up. But I also like this quote because its quite true. If we stop what gives us joy then what do we want to keep moving for? I always try to have a little fun of some kind each day. Whether that be crafting, listening to some good music or just having a laugh with a friend or at a joke.

Have A Happy Crafty Kind of Day,
