It is your Big Day!

I decided to make a fun "retro" kind of card. I have lots of Washi Tape and I think I have only used it one time!! I have seen several cards with washi tape used in the background and decided to try it myself. I LOVED the color and the Create with Connie and Mary color challenge this week...AND I have Washi Tape to match!! I also used the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches.


I decided to make this look a bit rustic too so I sponged the edges of the Very Vanilla and curled the CS a bit. The stars I covered with Crystal effects and sprinkled a little Dazzling Diamonds on them. I stamped some Gorgeous Grunge and them added my Washi Tape. I also used the WT to make little banners off the side of the tag. I think this could make a great Masculine Birthday card.
Thanks for stopping by!!
