 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"
