As I was laying these colors out, I really had to resist the temptation to make a Halloween card!!! I wanted to make a masculine birthday card for my BIL’s upcoming big day, so I went with that instead:
I did some embossing with a CB embossing folder, stamped my retired SU image in black Stazon and then used my aquapainter and reinkers to color in this baby. The Tasteful Trim die was used to make the zigzaggy embellishments. And a jumbo eyelet adds some heavy metal to make it extra-masculine! Although my BIL used to ride bikes a lot, his last accident cured him of that desire! Nothing major, just enough to make him realize at his age, with a family, some things are better left to younger men! So hopefully he can enjoy it vicariously through the card! That being said, this card also qualifies for the Our Creative Corner Challenge this week----boys and their toys! As always, feel free to email me with any questions!
I hope you zoom on over to the ColourQ blog to see what all those creative crafty chicks have come up with! Such a diverse group of stampers, you’ll be sure to find inspiration from someone! And thanks for visiting!
Chillin’ and readin’ in Grampy’s chair!!!
