Sweet Stamps Challenge #82 For The Guys

Today is our eighty-second challenge on the Sweet Stamps Challenge blog.
This week the challenge is to create a card FOR THE GUYS!!!

  Now is your chance to show us your idea for THE GUYS!!!!

  Have Fun!! 
 
Remember to use a SweetStamps image on your creation to get an extra chance at winning $20 of rubber stamps from SweetStamps!!
 
 An Easel Card begins my interpretation of FOR THE GUYS!!   I embossed Snowflake Banner Folder using Core'dination Cardstock.  The snowflakes are highlighted with CIP's Winter Frost. The folder was distressed with a sanding block.   I die cut the center of the folder on Beckett White cardstock and stamped Arctic Seals with Rich Cocoa Momento Ink .  The Seals are colored with Copics .  The bottom of the card was stamped with Crystal Snowflake and Snowflake Small with White Dye Ink creating a background.  The sentiment Happy Birthday was stamped with Tuxedo Black Momento Ink  and the edges torn for a masculine look!!  The fibers are from my stash.   The finished size of the card is 4.25" x 5.50"

Love the design of your card with the variety of snowflakes and the beautiful coloring on the Artic seals. Great idea using the Core'dinations with the sanded effect.
