Snowboardin' Celebration

 

CPS 149

Happy Saturday!  Wow, it's been a whole week since I posted anything and that long since I did any crafting.  The new year is proving to be a tad bit too busy!  Anyway, I am late posting this for the CPS challenge tonight, but I am submitting it anyway.  Took me a bit to get my bearings after a week away from the crafting table.  And, when I finished with this card, I realized I used the same colors as the last card I posted!  Oh well, everything just fell into place tonight so that's OK.

Again, I needed a masculine card.  I am beginning to think there are too many men in my family!  hahaha  I AM joking!  The snowboard digital stamp was great and I kept thinking of what else to do for a male teen birthday card and I was looking at birthday stamps and BAM!  Icing is like snow......so why not have the snowboarder 'snowboard' over the frosting of a cupcake.  So, I printed the cupcake on four different colors of cardstock, then pieced it all together and coordinated them with some of the paper strips behind the images.

Stamps:  Happy Birthday, Inkadinkadoo; Snowboarder digital stamp from Bird's Cards; cupcake digital stamp, Lindsay's Stamp Stuff.

Paper:  DP, Making Memories 'Just Chillin'; orange textured cardstock, Bazzill; chocolate, light blue and white cardstock.

Ink:  Staz On Timber Brown

Extras:  Number punches; turquoise star brads; orange brads; oval metal frame.

I have LOADS of cards to do in the next few days as I did not get my Christmas cards finished and so they are becoming New Year's/Winter Blessings/Valentine cards.  There is always a way to improvise.

More to come...
