For today's masculine card, I decided to be a kid at heart and create something for a younger male! It seems like I never have any birthday cards for boys on hand, so maybe this will be the start of a little stash for me!
I came across a little trio of robot stamps while searching through my stash and realized they had never experienced a dip in any kind of ink, so thought I'd let one of them cross that off his bucket list! I wanted the little robot to be a little shiny, so stamped him on some of Stampin' Up!'s Brushed Silver cardstock and cut him out. I added a tiny little gemstone to the top of his antenna. I stamped the single line of chevron using silver ink and then added the sentiment in black. I popped up the robot with foam dots after the blue glitter glue had dried. The stars I added just for fun! Now I just have to wait for a little boy to have a birthday!
Cheryl over at the A.R.T. Card Challenge gave me a heads up to enter this in their current masculine card challenge, so I'm linking this up! I love discovering new challenges out there in the virtual world!
The weekend proved to be a fairly relaxing one despite deciding to clean out one half of our unfinished basement. DH's parents are coming for a couple nights later in the week and my father-in-love enjoys helping with home projects! We figured we'd better have a plan and something for him to work on! He's a big help and great motivation for DH! I can't wait to see what they get done!
