Birthday Card for my Great Nephew

used 3D foam squares to attach it to the centre of the card base.

A ‘Clean and Simple’ Masculine Birthday Card

Sharing a 'clean and simple' card today made for a friend
who celebrated his birthday earlier this month.

I used Pinterest again to give me some inspiration, which I 
seem to be lacking at the moment.

I used the deckle squares to cut a panel in white card, glued it to the
card base, then cut half a square in grey and glued that on top.

Using my Misti stamping platform, I stamped the birthday sentiment in
black ink.

I die-cut the 'happy' in black card and black 3d foam, glued them
together and positioned it at an angle above the stamped birthday.
