Masculine Birthday


Recently I had an urgent request to make a young adult masculine birthday card, so I used this pre-colored digi from MakeItCrafty called Urban Johnny. I used the computer to create the sentiment, cutting the words apart and matting them with black. The image panel, smoky slate and green card base were all done with Lil Inker stitched rectangles. Thank goodness for pre-colored digital images that make for a quick card!

Thanks for stopping by and make it a great day!

You did a great job with this image, love how have arranged your own words around it, and the stitched frames give a soft feel to the whole card! Quick but effective!

Wow, that is a really great card! I agree, that the pre colored images can make things much quicker, but I also like your hand made added touches.

This is a perfect young adult masculine card and I just know the young adult that received it thought the same thing. Great colors for a masculine card. Enjoy your weekend. I do hope your temps are coming down for the weekend.

What a fabulous teen card Carol! I was excited to read how you did your coloring on this one as well as your background for it. Then I saw that it was a digi and had to laugh. They sure do make a fast and easy card for sure. This image is just perfect for that masculine teen card! Hugs, Brenda
