This Happy Birthday card features the Waterfront stamp set by Stampin' Up!  I think found this to be a quick and easy masculine card. I used the stamps and sponge daubers to create the different sections of the card. Then I added a couple of small boats using the April 2018 You Are My Anchor stamp set which coordinates very well with this stamp set. This is an A2 size card.

Material List:
-Stamp Sets:  Waterfront, High Tide, PP-You Are My Anchor,
PP-Manly Moments
-Cardstock: Old Olive, Sahara Sand, Whisper White
-Inks: Old Olive, Sahara Sand, Pool Party, Marina Mist, Crushed Curry,  Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler
-Tools: Sponge Daubers
-Basics: Scissors, Paper Trimmer, Tombow Glue, Adhesive Tape Runner
- Card Base:  Sahara Sand A2 Card (Folded Size 5-1/2" x 4-1/4")
-Old Olive Bottom Base Mat:  (5-1/4" x 4")
-Whisper White Top Mat:  (5" x 3-3/4")

Directions:
--Cut the Card Base and Top and Bottom mats to size per list.
--Stamp the Sun in the upper right of the Whisper White Mat.  Cover with a circular removable Mask.
--Then use sponge daubers to lightly color and divide the four background sections onto the Whisper White Mat.
--SKY: Marina Mist
--FOREST FLOOR: Old Olive
--LAKE:  Pool Party
--BEACH:  Sahara Sand - use some extra shading here
--Stamp the designs:
--Trees in Old Olive - using 1st and 2nd generation stamping.
--Waves on the Water section using the "Z" shape stamp with Pool Party ink.
--Stamp the Beach area with the dotted pattern stamp in Sahara Sand, and then use the grass stamp from High Tide in Old Olive ink.
--The sentiment I used is from a combination of stamps found in the Manly Moments Paper Pumpkin kit - I used Old Olive ink.
--The tiny boats from the You Are My Anchor Paper Pumpkin Kit were stamped in Night of Navy and Cherry Cobbler inks
--Glue the xx onto the white mat as indicated.
--Attach White Mat to the Old Olive Mat & then both to the Sahara Sand Card Base using tape runner.
