Another masculine birthday card.

Hi there!

With the bits and pieces of yesterday's card still on my desk... and encouraged by all the lovely comments on the card I posted yesterday... this card came to life!

To read how this geometric shape evolved, you may want to click HERE!




I am showing 2 different views, because it gives a better idea of the 3D effect I tried to create.

I combined the sketch from Case this sketch & the colors from The dynamic duos to create my card.

I usually play safe and stick to the sketch regarding exact proportions... strayed away this week, but I do think you can still see the sketch!


                                                        




The shapes and the sentiment were cut with my Silhouette.

Thanks for visiting me today!

Don't you just love when you "see" a design and it comes to life on a card?! It was great to see the process. This is extraordinary, Hannelie, but then I think all of your cards are!! Congratulations on the HM honor from CTS!!
