Hello everyone..
I'm back to share another slimline card, for a male, using waste..
After cutting out my chicken wire with matt silver cardstock from my last masculine card, I looked at those little shapes and plan came to mind..
I get a lot of plans come to mind but fizzle out when I try to make them work but this time I was really pleased...
After my glossy Dina Wakely sprayed background was all dry and I had use a toilet roll to paint on circles and a grungy stamp was inked all over I added these sliver shapes..
Splattered with gold ink on the background too, and I really liked these shapes on this card..
So I swiped the ink pad over the inside panel and added a few inside as well..
And here we have the finished card..I used my new die from??? and cut out the word happy then stamped the word Birthday...
Kaiser kraft, upper case and lower case letters and a perfect size, that is where to dies came from and luckily I went over to the next town and went to Spotlight to buy them and so surprised that they still had some left from their sale..
Thanks so much for stopping by, I'm a bit self inflicted under the weather today [Sunday] as it was my Grandsons 18th Birthday party last night..and Nana got carried away..lol..
Luv CHRISSYxx

Gorgeous card Chrissy! Happy Birthday to your grandson too, how lovely! My boy is also 'Zac'. Glad you had a fun night celebrating him. Hugs, Wends xoxo
I think it can be tricky to find suitable images for males of a certain age, but as you’ve demonstrated here, we don’t actually need images or other focal points on a card. I love this trendy, messy and contemporary design, very artsy.
You make waste look like treasure. Brilliant creation, love that you did the inside too!
