Here are my masculine and feminine card for Papertrey Paper Dolls challenge. Both cards are on creme cardstock. The stripe paper is More Mimi from TAC. For the masculine one I cut with some brown and beige stripes showing. For the feminine, I cut with just green and pink stripes. The stem stamp is from PTI. I love the versatility of having just the stems on a stamp. On the masculine card, I "smudged" timber brown ink on the stems to look like cattails and then swiped green, brown, and blue inks at the bottom to give the marsh effect. On the feminine one, I used the same stems stamp and then used a flower petal stamp from TAC, stamping it several times across the stems. then used a butterfly from the same PTI set. I mounted this on pink and green coordinating papers. On this one I traced the Happy Birthday with clear gel pen and used a little clear gel pen on the butterfly. 3 pink rhinestones at the bottom (they don't scan very well) add even more bling.
