Male Birthday Card

Hi all,

Hope you're well and looking forward to a long Bank Holiday weekend :) I can't believe another one is nearly upon us so quickly already :) I just *hope* the weather is kind to us.

Recently made a male birthday card after being inspired by the current Idea Book & Catalogue - using the Hostess Level 3 stamp set, "Queue Up". Using the lovely row of candles stamp, stamped on three different coloured strips of cardstock. The Whisper White strip of candles was coloured in using the Stampin' Write Markers and then I stamped and coloured in another set of candles so that I could create a 3D look with the 5th, 7th and 9th candle raised on dimensionals.
