Male/Teenage Birthday Card

As you will know by now - I adore the stamps in this set from The Greeting Farm - "My Guy Ian".... and I think it is the PERFECT stamp for a teenage boy!.  Cut a circle from Bazzill dotted swiss and added Papertrey Ink vintage buttons in Ocean Tide with embroidery floss.  Sentiment is from Papertrey Ink - Blooming Button Bits stamp set.  All on a black textured cardstock base by DCWV.
I am entering this into Crafty Angels Challenge - your favourite stamp and Crafty Cardmakers - Cards for Men Challenge and Cupcake Craft Challenges - One for the Boys..

Thanks so much for stopping by, hope you have a great Tuesday.

    Das Motiv ist ja auch zu niedlich.

    Liebe Grüße und einen schönen sonnigen Tag
