I just got my hands on the game controller die from MFT! I was thrilled to see this set make a comeback. It is perfect for the gamers in my life! My controller is much more life like in person. I mimicked my son’s controller, which is basically a mix of dull and shiny black. My card was super simple to create, with help from the sketch at Mojo Monday–
My fun papers are from the Boy Oh! Boy Collection by Carta Bella, layered with Close To My Heart cardstock. I used a variety of dies with black glitter cardstock for the Happy 13th Birthday sentiment. I popped up the controller with 3-D foam tape for added dimension.
All supplies by Close To My Heart, except where noted:
Boy Oh! Boy Papers by Carta Bella
1385 White Daisy Cardstock
Crystal Blue Cardstock-Retired
X5961 Saffron Cardstock
X6047 Black Cardstock
Z3236 Black Glitter Paper

Hi Allisa, what a great card you've created for your son's 13th birthday! I love the combination of die-cuts. The game controller, especially, really grabs one's attention. It's perfect, as you say, for the gamers in your life. Love those background patterns and colours, too. Thanks so much for sharing with us for our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
A super fun card, Allisa! So clever and bound to be huge success with many of the boys/ men I know!!! Well done!! Thanks so much for joining us at Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week!
