Summer is definitely here, making me think of the beach and ocean waves. And, the Waves Of Inspiration Stamp Set is great for masculine birthday cards.

Glimmer Waves
I began today’s masculine, birthday card, by stamping the wave in Starry Sky Ink on Vellum Cardstock, 5 1/2″ X 2 1/2″.
While letting the stamped wave dry, I prepared the background. The card base is Starry Sky Cardstock, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. This was layered with Tahitian Tide Cardstock, 4 7/8″ X 3 7/8″, topped with 2022-2024 In Color 6″ X 6″ Glimmer Paper, 4 3/4″ X 3 3/4″. After the wave dried, I attached it to the Glimmer Paper by adding glue to the of the darkest places in the wave.
“Happy birthday” is from the Waves of Inspiration Stamp Set, stamped in Starry Sky Ink on Tahitian Tide Cardstock, cut with a Sending Die, and attached with Mini Dimensionals.
I was inspired by the Paper Players.

So pretty, Su! Thanks so much for joining us this week over at The Paper Players!
This is a great way to showcase the ombre of the glimmer paper fully Su and by stamping the wave onto the vellum it works so well. Thanks for playing along with my sketch challenge over at The Paper Players this week!
