Wherever You Go Guy Greeting Masculine Birthday Card using Stampin' Up! Products UK

Today I have a Masking Technique to create the Sky Background to this Masculine Card.

The Wherever You Go Stamp Set, is another of the great collage stamp sets in the new Catalogue. Most (but not all) of the collage stamp sets, including this one, don't have sentiment Stamps in the set.

So I used the Guy Greetings Stamp Set to get the Birthday Sentiment, that was then die cut and popped up on Stampin Dimensionals for added depth. The new Burlap Ribbon is fab, and super for masculine projects.
