Welcome to my Blogger's Challenge for this week! Our challenge was very appropriate as it will be our List Mom, Lisa's birthday on Monday!!! Happy Birthday, Lisa!!!
My card today isn't her birthday card, however...I'll save that until after she receives it in the mail. My card today instead was created for my brother and my brother-in-law. Since these guys never see each other and have birthdays just 5 days apart, they usually get identical cards. I'm also fairly confident that they don't check out my stamping blog!
I began my card by stamping the medallion with my Whisper White Craft ink onto the Close to Cocoa cardstock and allowed lots of time for that to dry and set. Then, I inked the medallion with Chocolate Chip ink and slightly offset the image atop the original. The rest of the card is self-explanatory.
Thanks for checking out my blog and please check out the other birthday wishes for Lisa out there!

Love this! I think this is a great technique for this set too. Definitely looks masculine, but is also pretty enough that I think any woman would enjoy it as well!
