The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Early Espresso card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left. A 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Very Vanilla card stock was cut and taped to the inside of the card.
I cut a 3-1/4" x 4-1/2" piece of Very Vanilla card stock for the largest layer. On top of that is a 3" x 4-1/4" piece of Early Espresso card stock.
The DSP was cut into three strips. They all measure 4" long and each one is cut at a different with, 1", 7/8" and 1/2". Try to keep the picture (if there is one on your paper) in order. I taped the strips to the Early Espresso layer and that was then taped to the Very Vanilla layer. Dimensionals were added to the back and it was set in place on the center of the card.
The words are from the "Simply Said" set and were stamped using Early Espresso ink on a scrap piece of Very Vanilla card stock. I cut them out using the Labeled with Love die (a punch is available instead). I also cut out a piece from a scrap piece of DSP which I later regretted. That piece of DSP has a grid on it that is not exactly even so it was a bit difficult to line things up. I cut the piece of DSP in half and taped each half to the Very Vanilla word piece. Dimensionals were add to the back of that and the piece was set in place on the front of the card. I chose the upper part because I liked the little deer on the bottom to show. And that was it!
I thought this was a quick and easy card to make. All you need is a 2-1/4" x 4" piece of DSP to make this card. It's practically scrap!
Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's masculine birthday card,
Wanda

I always like when an image panel is cut into strips like that - very nice card!
