Occasions Mini Masculine Card

My Fathers birthday is tomorrow and here is the Masculine Card card I made for him. Most of these pieces you would use with more feminine types of cards, but I wanted to try making them for a guy card. I think it worked pretty well!
Almost everything used on this card is from the new Occasions Mini Catalog. For the bottom edge of the front of the card and next two layers, I used the Edgelits- Adorning Accents. I used the Sizzlits Large Paper Doily in Pacific Point card stock on top, and on top of that I have Dad stamped from the Loved Ones stamp set and cut out with the Framelits Labels Collection. The top banner is from the Take it to Heart stamp set. All of these are cut with the new thin metal dies that SU just came out with. They are amazing! Let alone really easy to store because they fit in an envelope!
I also used the Everyday Enchantment DSP from the upcoming Sale-a-Bration catalog (that will come out later this month!).
You can see that the top layers on the card use Dimensionals to make them really pop out. I think this really makes a card stand out more.
