Wetlands Meets A Work f Art Unisex Birthday Card Stampin' Up! UK

It was My Dad's 76th Birthday at the weekend, and as he only recently had a card for Fathers Day, that was very grungy, I decided to go with something very different. with this lighter & Brighter Card that could be used for a Man or Woman.

The anchor stamp & Grass Stamp helps to tie the card's unisex possibilities.

I went with the Subtles Collection for the background, using a combination of Pool Party, Soft Sky & Pear Pizzaz. Ink Pads, and Soft Suede for that wonderful warm brown.

The whole card was tided together by using some Linen Threat and some Subtles Enamel Shapes.

I used three stamp sets to create this card and two die cuts

A Subtle Layering Love Meets Playful Pallet using Stampin' Up! Products

Welcome back to a Stormy Saturday! At least, that is the weather her in Essex, UK ha ha

Today I have a super quick card for you in two colourway variations

The Background Collage Stamp Set is called PLAYFUL BACKGROUNDS

The sentiments come from either the BUILD A BIRTHDAY stamp set or the YOU'VE GOT THIS Stamp Set.

The First Card has been made using the Subtles Collection Ink Pads

And the Pink Colourway is using the 2016-2018 In Colour Collection.

The lush Melon Mambo Stitched ribbon, has now retired, but there are other colours in this ribbon that can be substituted. The other card is using Elegant Eggplant Solid Bakers Twine, and I LOVE it!

I hope you will too?
