We have a great challenge for you this week over at The Perfect Sentiment challenge blog!
It is to create a card with a birthday sentiment (on the front, as always). And for the twist: To use the "emboss resist" technique! In case this is a new technique for you, check out THIS easy to follow tutorial from SplitCoastStampers.
Here is the card I came up with using this fun technique:
I decided to take this opportunity to create a masculine card, since I often need birthday cards for men, but don't often think to make them ahead of time. I thought this image would be a fun one to use the technique on.
So check out the tutorial, and get your embossing powder and heat gun ready! I can hardly wait to see what you come up with!
I am donating the prize being offered this week, which consists of the following items:
Marcella By K floral accents with pearls
Pack of flower Clear Stamps
Pack of Stampin' Up! Earth Elements eyelets
Family Treasures Hearts border punch
Tin for altering
Spool of Sweet & Sassy floral grosgrain ribbon
This prize is limited to a U.S. participant only. In the event that our winner is a non- U.S. resident, The Perfect Sentiment will award digital images as a prize substitute.
Be sure to get your card linked up over at The Perfect Sentiment by Tuesday at 10:00PM EST.

Paper crafting has become my way to share the creativity inside my soul. It is my creative outlet, my diversion, and my escape from everyday craziness. After spending years as a Stampin' Up demonstrator, I learned how to share my love of crafting with others and encourage them to find their own creative outlets. Now, instead of working for a specific company, I am focusing my time on my own creations and designing my own art. I hope to inspire others with my work and am excited to see where this takes me!

Sarah, love your perfect emboss resist sailboat. It does really make a great masculine card. Nicely done.
Sarah this card really showcases how you can make other styles of card too!
