Morning all ,
I've got a Masculine card to share with you this morning for the weekly challenge at Less is More challenge blog .
Aren't men difficult to make cards for especially if they only have limited hobbies . I have a great stamp that I've had a while and certainly suits my hubby down to the ground !
The stamp is by Judikins, coloured with promarkers and the sentiment is made on the computer using Mandi and Chrissie's tutorial here . The font is so retro and can be found here . I have stamped a faint cross hatch background to the image and I decided to use the great idea of a broken border around the image and I think it just connects the elements nicely .
Thank you to everyone who comments , it's so lovely to see everyone visiting lots of different blogs via the challenge site , now I'm going to have a lookie too .
Thanks for visiting x

This is super Jenny, I love that broken line around the card.
ReplyDeleteI'm really glad that you found the sentiment tutorial helpful and that you are using the technique in your cardmaking.
Thanks for visiting other entrants' blogs and glad too that you are enjoying our challenges!

Hello Jenny, love the bright pop of colour on this one and I love that font, will have to check out the link. What a perfect stamp for a man, we don't read the paper in this house but my FIL used too, every Sunday morning he'd look exactly like that!
