Stampin' Up! Happiest of Birthdays Masculine Birthday Card

Happy Tuesday, folks...at least I hope it is for you. I had a great day yesterday because I sold four cards! Woo hoo!! I'm about to show you one of them.


This was a card kit that Sue L. brought for our group last Thursday. She had the snippets of DSP all cut for us. I'm entering my card at Pixie's Crafty Workshop: Pixie's Snippet Playground #391 and hope to win her delightful prizes, which consist of balloon and birthday dies. Di is a really fun blogger from across the pond and if you have never visited her blog, I hope you can take time to do so. I'm also entering my card in Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper November 2020 Challenge. She is another delightful person from across the pond and I have won several stamps from her.

Y'all know I love making masculine cards and this one is no exception. The stamp set is retired as is the DSP but it was a joy to work with. Oh, and you know I love monochromatic too! What's not to love about M & M's! I think the name of the set is Classic Pickups and it's from the early 2000's. Does anyone know? I didn't look at the edge of the stamp when I used it. I could call Sue but I'm banking on someone from the Retro Rubber Challenge Blog "They Said It's Your Birthday" Challenge #RRCB148 to let me know!

For the inside, I kept it quite simple...


The sentiment is from the current Happiest of Birthdays Stamp Set.

Thank you for stopping by today. Now, get back to working on your Thanksgiving Day menu! Mine is done...we are going to friends and I only have to bring dessert!!

  5. What a great monochromatic masculine card! I love the pattern play of the paper panels and I have that old truck set as well - an oldie but a goodie! Thanks so much for sharing this at the Retro Rubber Challenge #148 - They Say It's Your Birthday!
