Cityscape Birthday Card

Hello crafty friends! It's been a few months since I last posted anything. There was Christmas, a Christmas card exchange (I made 30 cards for that plus even more for family and friends!), getting both vaccines (YEA!), and then 'Snowmageddon' here in North Texas 😖 and we had to find warm accommodations since our home had no electricity and no heat for several days! But now I'm back in my craft room and crafting away!

These City Landscape dies from Impression Obsession has been in my stash for quite some time and I decided that it was time to use it! It reminds me of the year that I lived in NYC. For this card I needed something a little more masculine so I kept the colors muted and I also wanted to create a slimline card. These are so much fun to make and they have a lot more 'real estate' than the smaller A2 cards! I used Tim Holtz Distress Inks for the background and used the Tim Holtz Distress Sprayer to spritz some water droplets on it. The die was cut a few times in each color to stretch it out across the bottom of the card. I added strip sentiments from Simon Says Stamp (so quick and easy) and two enamel dots at the bottom. There are also Clear Droplets from Kat Scrappiness scattered through the sky.



I am entering this card in the following challenge: 

ModSquad Challenge - Fairytale Castle: The challenge is to incorporate a building or some type of architecture. 

Thanks for visiting and until next time, Happy Crafting!
