Hello friends and welcome to another Merry Monday challenge. This week Kathy is challenging us to make a masculine Christmas card, and that was a challenge for me! I tend to struggle with any type of masculine card, and this was no exception at first! But I persevered and was happy with what I came up with!!
And here's what I came up with:
I started by blending a few TH Distress Inks together for my background....Salty Ocean, Faded Jeans, & Chipped Sapphire. Next I used my MISTI to stamp just one side of Penny Black's Woodland Wonder stamp to the right side of my top layer. I had to stamp it several times to get a complete coverage of the black...gotta LOVE the MISTI in times like this!! Next I stamped my sentiment from Penny Black's Yuletide Wishes stamp set and then added a deer die cut from PTI's In the Meadow set. I layered my top layer to a black layer and then both of those layers to a white card base. Not my usual Christmas card, but I think it will work perfectly for a masculine Christmas card!!
Only 4 weeks left till Christmas my friends, so let us help you get those cards done! Come check out all the FABULOUS masculine inspiration we have for you this week, and then join in the fun! You can check it out right HERE.
Thanks so much for stopping by today...I love it when you do!
