HB Bro

Here is a little CAS card that I made for my brother for his birthday... I originally had plans to centre something in each of the squares, but then decided on this space paper which is perfect for him, and decided it was best left to shine... I like the quilted look and the sentiment was just right for the top space.

Not much to this, bar carefully cutting the paper into 9 squares, inking and distressing the edges, rebuilding the puzzle and adding the sentiment, which is stamped on Kraft and coloured with Copics... the twine border to finish!

Thanks for stopping by!

What's in it? 
Stamps:  Unity: The Right Words 
Paper:  October Afternoon: Rocket Age--Space Station; Kraft; Basic Red
Ink:  Memento: Tuxedo Black; Copic Markers; Distress: Frayed Burlap
Extras:  May Arts: Twine; Beutron: Button.

  1. Great card for your brother, lovely. Cards for fellas can be soooooo hard, but you've mastered this one. Perfect paper and embellishing. He may not appreciate all the little things (distressing, etc) that have gone into this wee masterpiece, but we do. xxx
