Here's a clean and simple birthday card I made for the current House Mouse Challenge where the optional theme is Party Time.
I stamped the sentiments and the image onto an A2 kraft card base and then colored the stamped image with colored pencils. I like the look of colored pencils on kraft paper. I don't do too many CAS style cards, but I like the way this one turned out and plan to use it for a masculine birthday as I often have trouble with those. Most of my birthday cards tend to be more floral and feminine.

ReplyDeleteI love this on kraft card stock. I need to try it. All these years and I haven't. I'm terrible at male cards. Your card is so cute and nicely colored. Thanks for joining us at HMFMC. {Bunny} Designer for House Mouse and Friends
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Bunny! I find colored pencils really stand out nicely on kraft cardstock.
