So, one of the FUNNIEST birthday cards I ever gave my DH was one that said " Happy Birthday to the King of the Castle" on the front, and then on the inside it said...."From the Power Behind the Throne".....heheheheheheh!!! I still love that, and when I saw
My Favorite Things new set, Good Knight, I was LOL at this sentiment.
Now, I just need to talk
Kim into making me a Power Behind the Throne stamp and all will be well!! I love this super cute castle in the set, so I decided to use it. It was colored with 3 different gray markers(SU Going Gray, Copic Warm Gray no. 3, and Copic Cool Grey No. 3). I then covered the whole thing with crystal effects to give it some dimension. The DP is from the Basic Grey Arcahic pack...love that stuff!! I made this card for the MFT release and then never showed it....duhhh. I added some silver brads and spiral clip with some Chocolate Chip wide grosgrain. That is it for me now, I REALLY need to get my stamp room cleaned up!! Thanks for looking!!

ReplyDeleteThis is fabulous!!! my DH birthday is later this month and I totally feel a case coming on. Thank you! I agree though, we need Kim to make the other half of your sentiment. grin!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely adore this card! And Kim definitely needs to make your 'throne' sentiment into a stamps.
ReplyDeleteha ha - too funny!! Love the card - I always find it difficult to make male-type cards, but this is a good one!
ReplyDeleteThe sentiment is fantastic! Very cool idea with the Crystal Effects! Have you tried (successfully or not) the SU Going Gray to outline your watercoloring images? How does it compare to your Warm Grey copics?
