Today's card is another male birthday card.  This card is really easy to make and can be used with many different colors and patterns.  The background is patterned paper from the DCWV Color Block Mat Stack.

Happy - Female Birthday Card


I created a card using chevron papers that I cut into strips to create the background.  I cut the word happy with my Cameo out of a strip of white scrap paper.  I intended the background to show through but I did not like the look so I cut a strip of solid color to go under the white.  I like how this card turned out.  It is a great card for any age, male or female.  It is quick and easy to make, that can be done in a few minutes.




Supplies
A2 Card - White card stock
Chevron Strips - 1 1/8" X 4" - 3 in one color and 2 in another
Solid Strip - 2" x 5 3/8" - purple
Banner - 2.5" x 5 1/4" - white - happy (Eras Bold ITC) at 110 pt font - birthday printed (LD Red Hatter's Hand) at 26 pt font in black.

Birthday Card - Simple Male

This male birthday card is really simple to make.  All you need is paper, a circle punch and letter stamps, handwritten or die cuts work as well.  The hardest part of this project was evenly spacing the rectangles.  I eyeballed it, put you can always use a pencil and ruler and erase any marks when done.

Happy Birthday - Female

Have you ever put something somewhere so you won't lose it?  Well this card has fallen into this unfortunate fate.  At least I took a picture of it, the inspiration for it came from a Mojo Monday sketch challenge.  I wanted something fun and busy.  Once I find the card I will take the measurements and post an update.  Hope you enjoy!
