One Layer Cowboy Birthday Card

March 5, 2018 - by Houses Built of Cards

One Layer Cowboy Birthday Card

Good morning! Heather here today with a sweet little one layer birthday card for the littlest cowboy in your life! Guy cards – even for little guys – can be so hard to keep simple enough for them to like, so it was fun to put together this card keeping the layers down to nothing but the one that is actually the cardbase, but also add some interest with some masking and background stamping!

Here is the video sharing my process for this card:

I mentioned in the video as well, but when I am doing a masked background, I prefer to do that part first, then color in my image – simply because then if I make a mistake I haven’t already invested the time and energy to do all my coloring.

The two stamp sets I used for this card are the darling Phyllis Harris Determination and one of my favorite go to birthday sentiment sets – SO Glad You Were Born. I find I need lots of birthday cards – and this one is so very versatile that I use it a LOT!

Hope this helps you next time you have a birthday card to make for the a little guy! Thanks for stopping by – and have a wonderful day!
