This is a Valentine's Day card for my husband. It is hard enough to make masculine cards for most occasions, but I think it is even harder to make them for Valentine's or anniversaries. Anyways, I think this one turned out really well and is perfect for a masculine Valentine's Day card.
The card is 5 1/2"x4 1/4" and made out of black cardstock. I took a piece of a metal craft sheet and cut it to 5 1/4"x4." I then embossed it with the Diamond Plate embossing folder. I used Indie Art to cut the heart at 3." I used the blackout feature for the black heart and the regular cut for the red heart. I put two black brads through the top and used some black twine to hand the heart from a silver brad that I put at the top of the card. I used Stamped for the sentiment, using the rectangle feature. I cut the letters out at 1" and used the solid rectangle to place beneath the letters. I then used foam tape to adhere them to the card.
This is for
365 Cards, where today's "Flashback Friday" challenge is: Metal Mania-to use at least one piece of metal, in any shape or size, on your card.
This is a super simple card, but I really like how it turned out. It is 4 1/2"x6 1/4." I used white cardstock for the card base and rounded two of the corners with a corner rounder from EK Success. I then cut some shimmery dark blue cardstock at 4 1/4"x6," rounded two of the corners and layered it on the card base. I stamped the image, which is from TPC Studios, onto white cardstock. I colored only part of it in, using a light blue on the cupcake wrappers and a glittery blue for parts of the icing. I cut out the image, it actually had a candle in the middle cupcake, but I cut it off. I then cut a piece of shimmery white cardstock at 3"x4" and rounded two of its corners as well. I then adhered that to the card base and the cupcakes to the white rectangle. I drew in two blue lines using the same blue marker that I used to color in the cupcake wrappers. I used Stamped to cut the senitment at 2." I cut it in shimmery white carstock using the shadow feature and in the shimmery dark blue cardstock regularly. I then adhered the sentiment to the card so that it overlapped the white rectangle. Nice and easy! Enjoy!! 
I made this card for the following challenges:
