I didn't realize this was my nephews 40th birthday but I am hoping he enjoyed this card anyway.
I had just received this die set in the mail. I have started back in July making Junk Journals and so I thought this set would be good to use with them. When I sat down to make my nephews card I thought the folder might make a nice card base. It measures 4 1/2 inches x 3 1/4 inches. I used other dies from the set for the embellishments along with some 49 and market papers, rub ons and ephemera.
- Tim Holtz - Specimen Dies
- 49 and Market - Vintage Artistry, Essentials 6x8 paper collection, Curators Meadow Laser cut elements and Wedgewood Rub ons
- Ranger - enamel accents Black
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,
Connie

Wow, what a great die set this looks like, and it makes a perfect birthday card for any guy who appreciates nature. Your 49 & Market paper is ideal with it, too.
What a great file shape to this card! I so want to get these sets. Can I come play with your toys?? haha! Seeing this cool card makes me want them even more. Your nephew will love it.
Oh I like the look of this! It's a great masculine design and that folder does make a great base! Love the look!
This is a great card! I love it. Great for a male card too.
Happy birthday to your nephew.
A very nice card.
All the best Jan
Oh Connie, I'm sure he loved it! I know I do! What a fabulous put together! Well done my friend ... using that die set would really be 'thinking outside the box' for me! Love what you've done here!
It's made a perfect card, Connie xoxo
You just sold me on Tim Holt's Specimen Dies. I've been looking at them for ages but didn't have a use for bugs, but you opened my eyes to them making a good masculine card. You opened my eyes.
Hugs,
