Need a masculine birthday card but have no idea what to make? This one is for you!
It just so happened that it was (a little past) time for me to mail a masculine card, and I saw something similar on Pinterest that I really liked. Although the design is simple, I think it has an understated elegance and LOTS of texture!
Just look at all of the texture! There's a rustic brick embossed background, linen texture to the black cardstock, a sleek smoothness to the gold die-cut foil, and the elevated banner (with upward-curved ends) that the "happy" rests upon. And, of course, those two shiny gold rhinestones. BUT . . . the texture didn't stop with the front of the card.
The inside of the card features another banner with a black heat-embossed sentiment. Thinking of stamping the sentiment on that stark white liner seemed so "blah", and I was quite pleased with the small banner. It will be a pleasant little surprise for the recipient, too.
So there you have it . . . a short and sweet idea for a masculine birthday card.
Have a stampin' good day!
