This is a birthday card that I made for my husband's boss who is a biker. Masculine cards are not my favorite cards to make but I was pretty happy with the way this turned out.
DP is from Simple Stories Destination Collection and stamp is from Hero Arts, Bicycles. I colored the bicycle handles and added black pearls to the hubs on the wheels. I also distressed the papers for that rugged masculine look! :)
Great card Arlene! I've seen so many great manly cards lately - I really need to use some of these ideas soon! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat masculine card Arlene! You should be happpy, this turned out awesome!!! I always struggle with guy cards. I think because I don't make them that often so I'm a little outside my comfort zone. TFS!
