Happy Birthday by Patricia Basson

#couturecreationsaus

Hello Blog friends....

Having a few male birthdays coming up soon, I created this masculine card that I am sharing with you today.
For this card I used two embossing folders from Couture Creations.



One of our newest ranges is the Marriot Collection which includes this beautiful, detailed Wire Barbs embossing folder. I also used an earlier released folder from the Who What Wear collection, Driving Miss Daisy. I have used two sheets of Patterned Papers from the Sew Jo Paper Pad.





I taped a piece of  foil to a piece of cardstock and embossed it with the Wire Barbs folder. I then coloured it with three colours of Alcohol Inks. I used it as a border strip and also as a small tag on the card.



For the car I used a light blue and black sheet of  Core Color cardstock from Core'dinations. My sanding was of course done with my Couture Creations Sanding block. I layered the wheels with 3D Foam Dots and also layered the doors. I  used a little Black Glitzin' Glamour Glitter glue on the roof and wheels of the car.
