Home To Roost, Beautiful Bouquet, Masculine Birthday Card, 2019 Stampin' Up! Sale a Bration

I was looking for a fun and easy masculine birthday card and I found on on Pinterest that I just changed a little and made it into a birthday card. You can see the original card here.

The base of this card is a folded half-sheet of Crumb Cake card stock.  This piece was cut on the 8-1/2" side and opens at the bottom.  I sponged the edges with Crumb Cake.

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Bermuda Bay card stock. I sponged the edges with Crumb Cake.

I cut a 3-3/4" x 5" piece of Crumb Cake card stock and stamped the "Hardwood" background image on it using Crumb Cake ink.  I sponged the edges.

I die cut the stitched rectangle using the Bermuda Bay piece I had cut and sponged. I cut from the center so I wouldn't waste any card stock.  I sponged the edges.

I die cut a Very Vanilla piece of card stock using the stitched rectangle dies and I stamped the rooster first and then the words.  The rooster is from the Sale-a-Bration set "Home to Roost" and the words are from the "Beautiful Bouquet" set. I stamped them both using black Memento ink.

I colored the rooster using the following Blends markers, Bermuda Bay (light and dark), Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade, Crumb Cake (light), and Pumpkin Pie (light).  I sponged the edges.

I taped the larger layers together and taped them to the card base.  I taped the rooster image panel to the Bermuda Bay stitched piece.  I added a piece of Burlap Ribbon to the center of the card front and then set the rooster layers in place using Dimensionals.  And that was it.  I thought it was a pretty quick and simple card to make.  I think it's a great masculine card!
