Giggle Greetings Masculine Birthday Card

Last week I shared that for the month of June I am sharing masculine themed cards. I'll admit coming up with cards for this month has been slightly challenging that's why I was so happy this card came together so easily.

I was thinking about my Dad and some of the things he's into, well it didn't take me long to land on dad jokes. I can't scroll through Facebook without rolling my eyes at least once because he has shared an awful joke that is only worthy of the greatest of dads. That was when I remember a stamp set I had been gifted and thought "this is perfect".

Supplies

1 - 8 1/2"x 11" sheet of Basic White cardstock

1 - 5 1/4"x 4" piece of Smoky Slate cardstock

1 - 3"x 3 3/4" piece of Well Suited DSP

1 - 2 1/2"x 4" piece of Basic White cardstock

Giggle Greetings stamp set (retired)

Biggest Wish stamp set

Pacific Point ink

Memento Black ink

Stamparatus

Instructions

Take the 8 1/2"x11" sheet of Basic White cardstock cut it down to 8 1/2"x5 1/2" and score that at 4 1/4" on the long side. I went right ahead and adhered the piece of Smoky Slate cardstock to the card front.

I then took the piece of Basic White cardstock and the cheese stamp from Giggle Greetings and stamped it along the bottom of the piece of cardstock in Memento Black. I used the Stamparatus for this just so I could ensure everything was lined up the way I wanted before I stamped it. I then stamped the 'happy' from the Biggest Wish stamp set in Pacific Point ink. I then layered the birthday script over top and stamped it in Memento Black ink.

I then adhered the white piece to the DSP. and then I adhered it to the front of the card. You can play around with how little or how much of the DSP you want showing. I chose the plaid pattern and was able to use the lines as reference for lining up my piece of white.
