ID: MC May/17 - Ron's 60th BD - ECD Happy Birthday - How Old card
size: 5"w x 7"h

Created: May 7, 2017

I was stumped as to what theme to use for Ron's 60th birthday... Then I remembered he loves watches, and the rest fell into place BIG GRIN

I'm  using an A Way With Words die from Elizabeth Craft Designs "Happy Birthday" 2pce die set, also available on Quietfire Design HERE

And using a quote stamp from Quietfire Design

("How Old Would You Be...");

Scored and folded my white card. Adhered the paper towel, edge to edge on the front. The towel was what I used to wipe up my Distress Oxides from my craft sheet a few weeks back. I loved what was happening with it, so kept it for later. BIG GRIN. I separated the 2 ply and adhered one to cardstock and the other to copy paper. I used the copy paper one for this card.

eCut the clocks (an image I found online), inked with Oxide "Walnut Stain" and embossed with Emerals Creed "Oil Rubbed Bronze" embossing powder.

Die cut the "Happy Birthday" from a blue cardstock, then cut a shadow layer from white, Adhered the layers together then onto the card front.

 On the inside: Die cut another "Happy" and colored each letter with various Prisma colored pencils, inked with Versamark and clear embossed. 

Manipulated the numbers and flourish below (from a silhouette file by Suzanne Cannon available on the Silhouette onLine store). Cut from white cardstock, inked with Versafine Black Onyx and embossed with the Bronze.

Stamped the various watches (Cornish Heritage Farms; Vamp Stamp News; Just Jhones) using the black and embossing with the Bronze.

Stamped the quote with the black and clear embossed.
