Masculine Seize the Birthday #2 Card with Inspired by Stamping Colors #42

This card came together very quickly using some retired products from Close To My Heart. The colors suggested by Inspired by Stamping #42 are White, Olive and Blue (Outdoor Denim) and I followed a sketch by Seize the Birthday #2.  The papers are from the retired Lucky set and the stamps are from "It's Your Day" a constant campaign promotion offered by CTMH last spring.  I used CTMH Olive and Outdoor Denim inks and cardstock papers for the greeting mat.

Here is the sketch:
