Monchroromatic and masculine


 I don't usually think of a Christmas card as "masculine," but I guess this one fits the description. The central image is "Christmas Emphemra" from Stamplorations -- it's a set of watercolored Christmas images in ATC sizes you can build a card around.  I used two shades of kraft, adding an embossed texture (Marianne Crafts) to the darker one.  Sentiment is embossed on a piece of vellum with torn edges, using an EP called woven tapestry.  Added a couple of brownish brads to hold the vellum in place.

This card is entered in these challenges:

Rudolph Days -- Christmas

Double D Challenge -- monochromatic

Jingle Belles -- Masculine Christmas card

CRAFT #638 -- Christmas

Can You Handle the Pressure -- Use an embossing folder

ABC Christmas -- K is for Kraft 

Pammie's Inky Pinkies #2221 -- Anything Goes

Word Art Wednesday #545 -- anything goes

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday -- Anything Goes
