Let me tell you, the Boys Will Be Boys set from Taylored Expressions is perfect for just about any Manly card I'll need to make! I used it again for this card. The layout is Karen Giron's Sweet Sunday Sketch #19, but it's also playing double duty as a challenge on Stampin' Out Alzheimer's! Yippeee!
I really hope I've convinced you by now to check out Stampin' Out Alzheimer's and play along with the challenges and giveaways. What's the worst that'll happen...you'll get some cards and/or scrapbooking pages made. What's the best that'll happen...you could win some super fabulous prizes!!!
Sorry...back to the card. This was a super quick and easy card to whip up. First thing I did was decide on the papers I wanted to use...the Father's Day Key Ingredients...they're so yummy (in a Manly way!). Next I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Choice Buttercream and coloured it with copics. I layered some of the solid papers from the Father's Day KI with the patterned papers and voila! I added a little paper piercing around the edges to jazz it up a bit and finished it off with some buttons from the Father's Day KI and a ghost star.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm actually starting to enjoy making Manly cards. Can you believe it?!?
Thanks for stopping by!
