Card of the Day - Big News Birthday

Hello and welcome back! Today's card would be perfect for a masculine birthday, or a kids birthday if done in some bright or primary colors.

I started out embossing the Cinnamon Cider panel to make a couple of cards for friends who have recently bought new homes, but decided to go in a different direction for those. I didn't want to waste the cardstock, and the Retro Rubber Challenge offered the perfect opportunity to use them. The card came together very quickly - the most involved part was fussy cutting the candles!

I used the right hand column of the tic-tac-toe board to create this card. The background panel is embossed and I added the metallic copper stars to the candles on this masculine card. The stamp set last appeared in the 2015-2016 Annual Catalog.

I've got a couple of family members with upcoming birthdays who will be receiving this card in the mail.

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!
