Sizzix - A happy birthday masculine card with hat and moustache


With this card I join a challenge on Simon Says Stamp blog: Make it masculine!






This will be the birthday card of my hubby :-)


To make this card I combined  two Sizzix step-up cards by Stephanie Barnard. 

First I cut out the basic with Sizzix Happy Birthday Step-Up Framelits Die:







I used the other side of the printed cardstock to cut out the "happy birthday" saying.






I used another cardstock to cut out the hat twice with Sizzix Top Hats and Moustaches Thinlits Die by Jen Long (659063). After I cut out the hat from a simple brown cardstock and with scissors I cut out a piece for the band. 










I cut out the moustache twice from a plain black cardstock.










I used a very thin but strong wire and I placed and glued it to the middle of the hat and the moustache. 

























What I also used:
