Here's another masculine card, inspired (thematically) by the cookie/photo challenge at If You Give a Crafter a Cookie. I was thinking of an Independence Day cookout.
I made the background by white-embossing a large background stamp, then masking off diagonal stripes of different sizes and sponging them in red or blue.
The image is from Bugaboo, colored with pencils.
That ribbon is just about perfect for a masculine cards --narrow and all business; no frills about it at all, A snip of it is wrapped around a star-shaped brad.
This card is for these challenges:
Cookie Challenge #20 (picnic cookies)

ReplyDeleteWhat a great card for a July 4th cookout. I'm totally jealous of that kid's burger. I LOVE burgers and it has been far too long since I've had one.
