This week on Cardz 4 Guyz the prompt is Love.
The base is Kraft. The design paper grids are actually gold. I used a rectangle deckle die for the red. The heart is a brushed gold. Adding a jute ribbon adds another masculine element. It is finished off with a gold brad. I left off a sentiment. I have already made my husband's valentine so I might keep this one for an anniversary card.
I used the sketch from Try a Sketch on Tuesday. I switched the circle for a rectangle. I think that gives a more masculine feel.
Here is the card I made for my husband. I guess it also counts as Love for Cardz 4 Guyz
The stencil is Tim Holtz called burlap. The hearts and circles are dies from Stampin" UP1

Marvelous take on the sketch, Donna. Love the textures and bold color block. Thank you so much for joining the challenge at Try A Sketch On Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteOooooh, I love both of these. The gold with the burlap and kraft is really nice, but I like the stenciling and die-cuts on the one you made for your DH, too. You have so many good ideas for masculine cards!
