Adventurous Sky, Take to the Sky, Masculine Birthday Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. I thought I would make one more masculine card before I put the "Adventurous Sky" bundle aside for a while. I found this card on Pinterest. You can see the original card here. Please read on to see how I put this card together.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Misty Moonlight card stock. It opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top.

A 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock was taped to the inside of the card.

I cut a 5-1/2" x 1-1/2" piece of Pecan Pie and taped it to the front of the card. It's about 3/8" up from the bottom edge.

A 2" x 4" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Take to the Sky" 12" x 12" package was taped to the front of the card about 1/2" from the left side and equal distance on the top and bottom. 

Then another strip of DSP was cut from the same package that measured 5-1/4" x 1-1/4". It was taped across the Pecan Pie strip and over the cloud DSP.

Using the largest circle in the "Everyday Details" die set, I cut a Basic White circle. I had cut a Crumb Cake one but it clashed with the Pecan Pie strip. I took my Blending Brush and scrubbed on some Balmy Blue ink to tone it down a bit. Basic Beige card stock was used on the original card. I didn't have any so I had to improvise. 

The words are from the same "Adventurous Sky" bundle and were stamped on the circle using black Memento ink. Dimensionals were added to the back and the piece was set in place on the front of the card. It was centered as much as possible by eyeing it.

I stamped the plane from the "Adventurous Sky" bundle using black Memento ink. I colored it in using my Blends pens. I used dark Balmy Blue for the wings. Boho Blue was used on the original card.

The body of the plane was colored in using light and dark Pecan Pie and the wheels and the "swirl" marks of the propellers were colored in using my light Smoky Slate Blends pen. And that was it.

This was a fun card to make. I am close to getting my stash of masculine cards done. It's pretty easy with this set!

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's masculine birthday card,
Wanda
