Grunged Up Birthday

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

I made this card for my son’s birthday.  I was so excited to use my new Papertrey stamps.  They came at the perfect time.   For this card, I used Grunge Me, My Hero, My Dad, Star Prints, Ad Sense, and Polka Dot Basics II.

I used Versamark and Weathered Wood, Fired Brick, Antique Linen and Brushed Corduroy distress inks.  I love using these inks any time I want that distressed look.  I also really like the way they look on kraft cardstock.

I have been spending a lot of time in my craft room lately, but cleaning and organizing instead of stamping.  It has turned into a much bigger project than I wanted it to be and now I am just ready to stamp.  I am so ready to make something!

Have a fantastic day!

What a perfect card for your son, Karen! Love the design, colors, kraft base and your use of all those different stamp sets! I made a grunge card for my brother - thought it ended up too grungy, but he love it, lol!
