70TH BIRTHDAY MAN CARD

 Hi hope everyone that pops into my blog, is well.Anyone who is under the weather or feeling down i have plenty of Hug's. Thank you all for looking at my new card.It's for the same lady i made the other 70th card for,she still hasn't given me the words she want's inside so just showing the front.

I started with 8 x 8 base card embossed it with INTERLOCKING CIRCLES folder from Creative expressions designed by Sue Wilson.
I cut two BEVELED STRIPLET die's one in Teal & one in Duck Egg Blue. I offset them & glued them together added to the side of base card .I then cut the NEW YORK TIMES SQUARE the largest size  out of teal. Then out of the duck egg blue i cut the 4th die in the CLASSIC RECTANGLES NOBLE DIE Next i cut in Teal from the TIMES SQUARE the second die in the set then layered them up onto the base card put some foam tape to add a bit of dimension. i then cut the number 70  out of both colours & off set them together i got the die set of numbers from the Range.Added some tiny dazzlers complimenting the coloured card Stamped Happy birthday cut it out with SUE WILSON'S pieced flag's

Well i hope you like my card & if you would like to leave me a comment that would be great as i love to read what you think.
Thank you love & Hug's Lynda xx

    Hi Lynda,
    A wonderful card as it's so hard making a man card unless they have a specific hobby. Love the way you have shadowed the striplet die I haven't tried that method yet and it always looks great.....love the teal colour too and the duck egg is a perfect contrast. Take care my lovely friend will be in touch soon.

    Love and hugs
