I've made a male birthday card today as it's our SIL's birthday today.
Male colours are not one of my favourites...so I've had a play around with some unusual colours...like burnt gold and cinnamon and white....to create this Bokeh effect - I really like the photo Mandy shared here and tried to create something like that...(I must say here that the photo is not true and the card is really a lot softer in colour, much more muted) I used a silvery pearl card base and masked off a section at the bottom and inked the edge and then die cut Happy Birthday in twice and layered them to give a background highlight.
This month House of Cards challenge is to use the Bokeh technique.
Thanks for taking a peek

ReplyDeleteHi Robyn! I think you did a great job making this card masculine. I have trouble sometimes with those too--girly is just so much easier--LOL
