Many of us find it hard to make those pesky masculine cards. Black and kraft tend to be my go to colors for guy cards.
I used the Birthday Borders Stamp Set from snss for this card. Using my MISTI, I did repeat stamping of the candles across the kraft cs. I used Versafine Black ink for a deep, crisp image. The word birthday is die cut out and a scrap piece of alcohol ink paper was placed behind it. The word 'wishes' was stamped on another piece of the alcohol ink paper and heat embossed in black. Wishes, from the Sentimental Mash Up set, is popped up on dimensional tape. A bit of natural twine finishes the card off.
I was inspired by a few challenges~

And Festive Friday~
And lastly, The Male Room~
