a touch of masculine birthday card

today i'm here to share a card i made for my brother in law! so i tried to make it less feminine...which is hard for me! ha ha! 
i used the super fun sketch from the retro sketches challenge!

here it is:

first, i layered some really fun, geometric, navy washi down on my cardstock. then i used some really fun, lime green chevron cardstock for the panel, which i popped up.
i used some mama elephant stamps for the sentiment (the say what stamp set), which i also stamped in navy! love them!

then, to finish it off, i added some super fabbie wood veneer arrows from freckled fawn! i added 'color' to the arrows by using some white enamel. i really wanted them to be white, white, like the background! and the white enamel was the way to go! 

so that's it!
enjoy!
