Let it Ride with Crackle Paint

This card makes a great masculine birthday card.  It was inspired by Mary Deatherage's card that I saw on Pinterest only I changed it up a bit.
Here are my instructions for this card:


Stamp Set:  Let it Ride, Crackle Paint

Cardstock; Early Espresso, Crumb Cake

Ink:  Early Espresso, Mossy Meadow

Other:  Big Shot, Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder, Story Label Punch, Mossy Meadow Baker’s Twine (from Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo Pack), Glue Dots, Dimensionals



1.     The base of the card is Early Espresso cardstock cut at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” and scored at 4-1/4” in the middle.

2.    The second layer is Crumb Cake cardstock cut at 4” x 5-1/4” and inserted into the Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder and run through the Big Shot.  Adhere to the front of the card.

3.    The small piece of Crumb Cake cardstock is cut at 2-3/4” x 3-3/4” and the Crackle Paint stamp is inked up with Early Espresso ink.  Then ink up the trees with Mossy Meadow and stamp at the bottom without re-inking to make them appear far away.

4.    Layer it onto the 3” x 4” Early Espresso cardstock with Snail Adhesive.  Put Dimensionals on the back and adhere to the front of the card.

5.    Ink up “Happy Birthday” with Mossy Meadow ink on Crumb Cake cardstock.  Use the Story Label Punch to punch it out. 

6.    Use the Story Label Punch to punch out an Early Espresso label.  Cut it in half and layer it behind the Crumb Cake Label.

7.    Double the Mossy Meadow Baker’s Twine and tie a bow to adhere to the label with a Glue Dot.
