Here's another masculine birthday card. When I saw the colors for the challenge at Create with Connie and Mary, I knew I wanted to use this ribbon, but wasn't sure what I was going to do. Then I came up with this idea, and like how it turned out. I got this stamp set awhile ago, but it was the first time I inked it up.
Recipe:
Stamps: By the Tide, Express Yourself
Ink: Pacific Point, Smoky Slate (sponged edges)
Paper: Summer Starfruit, Smoky Slate and Pacific Point card stock
Misc: Pacific Point 1 1/4" Striped Grosgrain ribbon, Summer Starfruit 1 1/4" Striped Grosgrain ribbon, Circle framelits, Word Window punch, Modern Label punch, sponge dauber, dimensionals
