Masculine Birthday card for Retro Rubber

 Time for a new challenge at Retro Rubber and we have a fun tic tac toe for your stamping pleasure!

I had a need for a masculine birthday card so I went with the diagonal that includes Green and Twine/Cord.

I pulled out a few scraps from my stash and added a few fun details!

• Darice Crackle embossing folder was used to create the green background.  After pressure embossing I sanded the surface to bring out the texture.
• Recollections Kraft cardstock is used for the base and the layers of the card.  Lawn Fawn Small Cross-stitched Rectangle die from 2016 was used on the sentiment base layer.
• Provo Craft Slab II from around 2002 patterned papers are used between the layers and as the top layer.
• Ms. Sparkle & Co. from 6/2019 is used to stamp the sentiment in Memento Luxe Rich Cocoa.  Rich Cocoa is also used to edge the patterned papers.
• Two layers are adhered together I tied craft cord around the layers before adhering with dimensional foam adhesive to the next layers.

This was a really fun card to put together.  My father-in-law enjoyed receiving it as well!  Please do come and join us at Retro Rubber!  These are our challenge guidelines:
