Masculine Monday

Good Morning Stampers

Today's card is for my other grandson Troy whose birthday is on Wednesday, 31 March.  I also added a star on his card because all my grandchildren are stars in my eyes.

These extreme sports/hobbies stamps by Stampin' Up! (like Extreme Guitar and Extreme Skateboard) are perfect for that special someone between the ages of 10 and 21 when it's so hard to make a card for them – at least something you think they will like!

What I did:

1. Again I used the Sweet Pea Designer Series Paper Pack from the Occasions Mini Catalog.  With 48 sheets of design paper, you are bound to find the perfect paper for your card.
2. I used the Extreme Guitar Stamp which is available during the Sale-a-bration promotion for FREE with every $50.00 purchase.  I stamped the image with Basic Black Craft Ink, added Black Emboss Powder and heated with heat gun for a shimmery finished look. 
3. I next stamped over the main image with with Extreme Elements in Bermuda Bay.
4. I also used the same stamp image from Extreme Elements over the sentiment.  This was punched out using the Modern Label punch.  The 2nd layer (Bermuda Bay card stock) is from the Mover and Shakers Bigz Die.
5. Adhered all the layers together and added the star and sentiment with Stampin Dimensionals.

Time is running out and only two days until Wednesday, 31 March.  Don't let that Sale-a-bration item get away. 

Two promotions ending on 31 March 2010:

1. Sale-a-bration ends on 31 March 2010 and your last chance to get a free item with every $50 order. 
2. The starter kit is 15% off until 31 March 2010 plus you get one free stamp set from Stampin' Up!.  For more information on becoming a demonstrator, click here.  I have sweetened the pot by adding a stamp set from me – any amount from any of the catalogs.
