Gamer Boy

Hello crafty friends, today I am back to share my D.T inspiration for the Paper Nest Dolls. 

For today's card I wanted to make a masculine card, so minimum embellishments & dies were used. 

 

For my stamps I am using the really cool Gamer Boy from the Build Your Own Nest (Gamers). I have also coordinated the Gamer Boy with the couch from the Build Your Own Nest (Family Room).

The Build Your Own Nest (Gamers) set comes with 3 digital images: a gamer boy, a gamer girl and a game console/games. The Build Your Own Nest (Family Room) set contains 30 digital PNG images so you can build your own scene/room. This sets are so versatile, because you have so many options to mix and match and have fun & make many different scenes with just using 2 stamp sets! 

 

Build Your Own Nest (Gamers) is available in digital format here & Build Your Own Nest (Family Room) is available in digital format here.

Don't forget to check out another set which goes great with these 2 sets called Build Your Own Nest (Girl Time). 

Supplies:

Stamp: Paper Nest Dolls  - "Build Your Own Nest Gamers", "Build Your Own Nest (Family Room)

Paper: Pion Design - The World Awaits
