Going Global...

Today's wonderfully masculine card uses our Going Places suite of products from the Occasions catalog.  I've used the World Traveler Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, the Going Global stamp set and the Going Places Designer Series Paper Stack.

I used Sahara Sand for the base and front of the card on a mat of Basic Black card stock.  For the embossed front piece, I brayered Sahara Sand ink over the inside cover of the folder, then ran it through the Big Shot.  I adds just enough color to help highlight the great details.  The world was stamped with Lost Lagoon ink on some of the DSP and cut with the 2" Circle Punch.  I added a couple strips of the Going Places DSP, stamped the "Happy Birthday" from Guy Greetings on Vanilla card stock and trimmed with the Washi Label Punch.  A couple sequins from the Metallics Assortment finishes off the card.  Love it!
