The most difficult part of this card for me was getting the strip of diagonal card stock cut long enough. In the process I also trimmed the card down so it's less than 4.25" wide, but who knows at what point I stopped trimming. It's like cutting your bangs - just put down the scissors. The rest of the card was simply gluing pretty paper to the black card base. I dug out my CAS-ual Fridays "Shenanigans" set for the bold birthday greeting.
The sketch is from CAS(E) This Sketch!:
and the chevrons are for the current Seize The Birthday challenge:
"Chevrons"
Easy peasy. Well, except for that diagonal thing ...
Thanks for stopping by!

It has a nice contrast with the chevrons and the diagonal strip. I love that sentiment stamp.
ReplyDeleteYes! It has taken me awhile to realize that when you go on the diagonal that you need a much longer strip that you think you need. I screamed at the chevrons on your card. I just love them. It makes the card more Happy Birthday festive!
ReplyDeleteThat big bold sentiment, just makes the card!
