A lovely theme for our Sweet Stampin challenge this week - Hail to Burns Night. Well, my maiden name was Wilson and my paternal grandfather was Scottish so this should have been easy for me? Nope! Trawling through all my old stamp sets there wasn't one I had with a Scottish connection - Welsh yes but not Scottish - so I started to think outside the box.
One of the die cuts I got from a local little shop at Christmas had this gorgeous Stag in it. I decided to use some of the lovely tartan paper from Festive Chalkboard paper pad to layer behind the stag.
I layered it onto some Night of Navy card stock from SU and added a sentiment at the top and an extra piece of the tartan paper at the bottom with a banner. The Happy Birthday is from Clearly Besotted and the sentiment on the banner is from SU Feather Together. I have a person in mind that this card is going to and it will suit him down to the ground.
I look forward to seeing your take on this theme. Thanks for popping by and leaving a comment - I love to hear from you.
