I'm going to a 100th birthday party on Friday night. Sam, the man who is 100, is an amazing person - lives on his own, does all his own shopping, still likes the football and a wee dram. Incredible. Of course, I had to make him a birthday card. This really challenged me. Not only am I not very comfortable making men's cards, I've never made a 100th card before! This one was way, way out of my comfort zone. No Tildas here!
My recipe: Cuttlebug and Spellbinders Nesties Labels One
Cardstock: Coredinations
Ribbon and Gems: from stash
Numbers: Cut by hand and embossed with green sparkle embossing powder and heat embossed
Sentiment: Dovecraft Clear Stamps
Fiskars Threading Water Punch

I'm sorry it looks black but it is green, I promise you. If you click on the picture you can see a bit better that is a nice emerald green. Just right for a football team with Irish roots.
I can enter it for several challenges:
Cards for Men - Green (perfect because Sam is a big Hibs supporter!)
Charisma Cardz - Male
Cupcake Craft Challenge - Keep it Simple (I had real difficulty with this one - it's simple allright)
Paperplay Challenges - Birthday card for Someone Special
Pink Elephant - Use Ribbon
One Stop Craft - The fabby sketch
That's it. It's a bit plain, I know but something different. Thanks for dropping by.
