At the end of last week, I was trying to get all the November birthday and anniversary cards ready to mail. I realized I needed a birthday card for my nephew in Portland. I keep a document with all the current challenge images on it and found the new CAS(e) This Sketch inspiration. It seemed perfect for a "guy card." I stuck right to the sketch this time.
Here's my take:
Back to one of my favorite color schemes: black, red, and white---and the Simon Says woodgrain paper. The Spellbinder's "Label Two" die is a pretty close replica of the label on the sketch, and I used one of the tag images from Papertrey's "2012 Birthday Tags" set.
I embellished the inside of this one as well:
Now all the November cards are in their envelopes waiting for the appropriate date to go in the mail.
