If you follow me, you know I love any Memories & More Card Pack and this one is no exception.
I made this for my grandson who is majoring in theater. I hope one day he will become a star and that I will get to see that event. This is a monumental year for him. He now is able to vote, drink and has his own apartment in Manhattan!
The card base that I used is one from her Close to My Heart donation. I do love the frayed edge and texture. I used one of the large pieces from the pack for the mat and cut one of the smaller pieces with my Stitched Rectangle Dies. I also cut a Whisper White mat for it with the same die set. I adhered 3 copper star embellishments.
For the inside, I cut a piece of Old World Specialty Designer Paper and adhered one of the small card pieces over top of it. I stamped the birthday sentiment in Night of Navy using a stamp from the Good Morning Magnolia Stamp Set.
I'm entering my card in these challenges:
Crafting Happiness Anything Goes Challenge #63
Double Trouble Challenge #65 Something, Anything, Everything. I'm playing with Thing 1 and Thing 2 (partnering with Crafting Happiness)
Just Add Ink Challenge #520 "Just Add Guys"
