No frou-frou creations here today. Check back here soon for that!
Instead, I've got a masculine birthday card for a loved one. It features pretty much ALL snippets and scraps of Stampin' Up! papers, plus one of their images:
Tried to create a strip of 'washi tape' with paper....not sure if it's convincing, but just humor me. ;-) The edges were punched with a Postage Stamp punch to give a torn edge look. Hmmm...
The fern is from Organic Grace. I turned up one bottom corner of the image panel, to try to make it look like I just casually 'stuck' this up on the card with the (failed) washi tape.
As I type this, I am laughing at this attempt of a guy card. Hope it gave you a little chuckle too!

I think it is fabulous! LOVING the fern!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMost people know I refer to them on my blog as DMC (Dreaded Man Card) I just don't have a knack for it. Yours fabulous!
ReplyDeleteYou got this "man" card just right. The faux Washi tape with the postage edge is so cool and the metal is all man. :-) Good job!
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely perfect for a guy card!! That fern image is just fantastic. I love how intricate it is!
ReplyDeleteI thought it was washi tape! Love the metal embellies!
ReplyDeleteThat metal cutie on the side and patterned papers are lovely. Washi tape is one of my faves; you got me with this card:)XX
ReplyDeleteAnd there is nothing wrong with this attempt for a masculine card. Never, ever underestimate yourselfXXX
I thought that was Washi tape! Love the contrast of the green fern with the browns in the background.
ReplyDeleteI think the fern and the bit of hardware make a great guy card!! And your paper looks like Washi to me!
ReplyDeleteWe never love our guy cards, do we? However, I really like nature images and browns and polka dots and hardware. That all adds up to I really like your card!
