Matt's birthday card

Next weekend it's my niece's husband's birthday, and being as how I am always 
at a loss for ideas for men's cards I had to resort to a bunting card.
I also decided that as three of my "masculine" colours will be retired in July, 
that I had better make an effort to use up the cardstock that I have in these colours -
More Mustard, Bravo Burgundy and Not Quite Navy.
(I will really miss the More Mustard as it beautiful for Autumnal colours)


I used one of the Hearts a Flutter dies to make the bunting and stamped them
using the Lovely Letters alphabet stamp set.
The sentiment is from Curly Cute
and the only embellishments are gold brads.
Mmmm - I'm quite pleased with this!
Hope that Matt likes it!

    Great choice of colours for a masculine card. I like the shape of the bunting with the stamped letters as well. Makes a bit of a change from triangular bunting.
