Crafting with Cotnob: Happy Birthday and Good Luck

It's time for a new challenge at The Paper Shelter and the theme for the next week is Boys are back in town - A card for a Male. I have used this fabulous collection called Businessman - as you probably know each set consists of one inked stamp, one coloured stamp, one matching paper and one composition.

I have created two cards, for the first one I have used the composition, I have flipped it so that he is facing the opposite way as I wanted to add the 'It's Your Birthday banners on the left hand side.

I printed him twice so that I could add dimension and used the matching paper to decorate the inside of my card.

For my second card I used the coloured stamp and some papers from the Trattoria Chef Paper Pack, I printed the image twice so that I could add some dimension.

I computer generated the sentiment and decorated the inside of my card to match.

Make sure you pop over to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog and check out the DT inspiration, we would love for you to join us for our Boys are back in town Challenge. If you use a Paper Shelter image you could win a $30 Gift Certificate, if you use another image you can win 3 Digis of your choice.

Thank you for calling today, your company is much appreciated.
