Not So Snowy Snow Front

I’m always in need of masculine birthday cards so I made this birthday card for the Seize the Birthday Challenge. 
Thank you to Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge for the sketch inspiration. I turned the sketch sideways and created this Fall scene from Stampin’ Up’s Stamp set Snow Front.

Fall Cardinal

Thanks goodness for the inspiration I get from challenge blogs. If it weren’t for them I would stare at blank cardstock much more than I already do!  I have a card I made with the help of two challenges this time.  The challenge at Fusion Card Challenge is two part, you can use either or both. I started out using the sketch but veered away from it in the end, but it was my starting point. I did stay with the Autumn theme, though.  The challenge at Festive Friday was to pick three words from the “Talk Like a Pirate” list....so fun!  I chose gold, bird and wood.  You can see the challenges by clicking on the hyperlinks.
