Have you joined the slimline card trend yet? Today I am sharing a slimline steampunk masculine birthday card I created. And since slimline cards seem to be the new rage, I thought I would make one using some chipboard. I think I have more fun creating masculine cards than I do girly type cards.
Some of the products I have used in this post have been provided to me by various companies. The opinions I share are solely my own. Affiliate links may be used where possible at no cost to you. However, I do earn a small commission when you click on my links and make a purchase from them. Thank you, and I appreciate your support!
I started with a slimline card base of 8.5" x 3.5" using kraft cardstock. Then I cut a piece of black cardstock to 8.25" x 3.25" and adhered it to the card base. Next, I embossed some Rinea Silver Starstruck Foiled Paper using a Sizzix 3D Embossing Folder cut into 3 sections and adhered to the card base. Lightly rubbed on some black gesso to help the embossed areas to stand out better.
I used the Creative Embellishments Gear Set 2 Medium and used several different colors of embossing powder on them in blues, greens, and gold then adhered them onto the top and bottom silver square. Over the gears, I used the Happy Birthday from the Creative Embellishments Small Sentiment Words Set and embossed them with silver embossing powder.
For the center square, I used one of the Creative Embellishments Steampunk Timepieces and embossed them with embossing powder the same as I did with the gears. The hands of the clock I embossed using silver.

I design for several companies because I genuinely love their products! Anything I recommend on my blog is something that I genuinely love and regularly use. I buy most of my own supplies. However, I do receive some free products to work with, and I sometimes make money for the projects I make. I DO NOT get paid for product reviews, I give my honest opinion about the products I use, and I will never recommend a product that I do not like or would not use.
