It’s always a great time to give a beautiful handmade gift! Arlene Cuevas has created a stunning birthday card that’s just perfect for the special birthday men in your life! I would like to send out a big thank you to both Arlene Cuevas & Graphic 45 for allowing us to share today’s inspiration piece. Be sure to stop by the Graphic 45 Blog to see more of their amazing designs.
Handmade Graphic 45 gifts are a wonderful way to show you care! Here we have Arlene’s marvelous French Country birthday card! I love how versatile the French Country paper collection is! The blues, greens, and blacks in French Country are a perfect choice for this warm masculine card. The Graphic 45 Metal Staples and French Country Banners were the perfect embellishment.
I just love all the perfectly placed layers, all the different textures, and the warm shabby chic look & feel of this heartfelt card.
And lets not forget to give the inside of the card the love it deserves. How beautiful.
