I needed another male card and used my 'go to' die for masculine cards - I also used lots of tiny snippets, including my last piece of this lovely blue and gold pearlescent marbled paper.
6" x 6" kraft card blank
My Favorite Things 'Big Birthday Wishes' die
Snippets of kraft card, cream matt card, gold pearlescent card and blue and gold marbled paper (sorry, but I forgot to take a photo of my snippets!)
I trimmed the snippet of kraft card so it was slightly wider than the die and cut the large sentiment from the centre before attaching the panel to the front of the card blank. I attached the snippet of marbled paper to cream card and die cut 'BIG' before inlaying the letters into the front of the card. I die cut the rest of the sentiment from gold pearlescent card and inlaid them. I then inlaid the small pieces of kraft card into the letters. To finish I trimmed two narrow strips of gold pearlescent card and attached them down each side of the sentiment panel.
I am entering the following challenges:

I love this large birthday sentiment and the blue and gold marbled paper for the 'BIG' looks gorgeous against the kraft card and the added gold pearlescent card used for the rest of the sentiment and the strips down each side finish it beautifully...a great masculine card. x
