Having lots of boys in my life (I have 5 nephews, from age 5 to mid 20s), plus the more adult male family members, I'm always in need of masculine designs. And I love making them.
This card came together rather quickly with toppers from a Maja Design paper pad.
The sentiment and scallopped border I belive were part of a set from Kaisercraft.
Corrugated paper and an embossed background with woodwork pattern.
I swiped my white inkpad over the surface to tone down the intensity of the blue color.
No fancy stuff used, no stamps, dies or stencils, just paper.
This card is for:
Allsorts - #611 Masculine
