Gnarly Birthday Card by Jen

Howling Hits! 

Hello! Jen here today and I'm sharing a gnarly birthday card that features our newest Toner Card Fronts and our adorable puppy with the mix tape!

This card uses the following products:

I started out by stamping and coloring the cute pup from the Puppy's Mix Tape Stamp Set. I used watercolor markers to create a gray pup and then used blue and purple for the cassette. I added the "Howling Hits!" as the title of the tape. The coordinating Puppy's Mix Tape Die Set has an extra die that fits right over the cassette image so that you can add the label on as a layer! I love this because it makes it look like you put a sticker on the cassette!

Once the image was done I created the card. I  chose toner sheet with the cassette pattern from the Retro Mix Toner Card Fronts. I added blue foil over the top and applied it with my minc laminator. I saved the leftover piece of foil and layered that over a black toner sheet from our Solid Black Toner Card Fronts. Then I took both of the foiled pieces and cut them out using our Card Layout 7 Die. I used the piece created with the solid black for the frame. Then I used the pieces that were created with the original toner sheet for the top and bottom panels and glued them to a gray card base. 

Next I stamped the "hope your birthday is" onto a purple banner. Then I used the Card Layout 7 Die with black cardstock for the center window. I added the words "totally gnarly" onto the center piece, embossed in white to finish the greeting. 

The dog holding the cassette fit perfectly along the bottom below the birthday greeting.
