I had to come up with some birthday cards for guys. I came up with an easy and simple layout with an acoustic guitar and a woodgrain background.
CLICK BELOW TO SEE WHAT I CAME UP WITH!
I made a set of 3 cards that way I'd have some extras on hand.
I used the guitar from the SU! Country Livin' stamp set. I hand colored each guitar with prismacolored pencils and blended with gamsol. On the sentiment flag I used felt circle stickers to give a little something extra to the card
I used the wood grain embossing folder and I used a brayer and SU! ink inside the folder so that when the paper got embossed it would give the wood a 2-tone color. I used some silver shimmer embroidery floss and made a double circle and tied a knot and then frayed the ends, to replicate guitar strings.
I hope you like this card, it was fun coloring the guitar to make it look like an old acoustic.
Come back soon, I have lots more to share as I'm still trying to catch up on getting all my cards from this year posted.
Keep on Craftin'!
