Number of Years Traveler Masculine Birthday Card

HAPPY EASTER to you all

I hope you have a wonderful Family Weekend

Tomorrow we are having a big Easter Egg Hunt with our Grandchildren, It;s great fun as our garden is large, with lots of places to hide those chocolate eggs !

Anyway, the card I am sharing with you today, is a card I made for my Brother-in-Laws 50th Birthday

Since he is a train driver, I decided that the Traveler Stamp Set from Stampin Up! just had to be the main stamp set for this card.

However, I also used the Remembering Your Birthday stamp set, for the sentiment inside the card, plus the Number of Years Stamp Set. for the large numbers and the Sentiment Banner.

The Large Letters Dies and the Number of Years Stamp Set is available as a Bundle in the 2016 Spring/Summer Seasonal Catalogue from stampin Up, and is available via my online store, at a 15% discount

(see the bottom of today's blog post)

Hostess Happy Birthday Everyone with Flowering Flourishes Stampin Up! UK

For a few weeks, I am having to reduce how often I can do my blogs and videos, as we continue to have repeated disruption to our internet connections. I feel at a loss, but I would rather do this, and make sure the internet is reliable again, rather than letting you guys down.

So today I have a super quick and super easy feminine Birthday Card for you ... I am participating with a Hashtag Project, #imbringingbackbirthdays

This is a campaign to get us all posting birthday cards via the Royal Mail, rather than posting digitally.

So, if you would like to receive a blank handmade birthday card, then send me a message with your name and address, and I will get them out to you.

The one thing I ask, is that you direct 5 people to my blog, Facebook page YouTube channel etc, and let them know I will send them cards too, if they would like one. So feel free to pass the message on!

You will find all my details at the bottom of today's blog post or on the Contact Me Tab on this blog

Guy Greetings From Land To Sea By The Tide Masking Technique, Stampin Up! UK

Today's card was featured briefly in a recent video talking about my submissions as part of a selection process with Stampin Up!
Today I have this super masculine card made with a combination of stamp sets, and a Masked sentiment. I have gone with a colourscheme that mimics the colours ofsea, and therefore the Retiring 2014 - 2016 In Colours were perfect for the job. I added in some Basic Black and Basic Gray to get those under water images of the Turtles and seahorses.

As always there is an accompanying Video. For the time being I am reducing my video's to 3 times weekly. Hopefully, BT will be able to resolve the errors on our broadband connection. As soon as that happens, I will return to 5 video's per week.
