Another male card part 2!

As I said in my earlier post I not that confident making male cards but over the last week or so that all I've been asked to make (typical eh!). This was for a friend in work (who also asked for the farm themed card). I again used the Boys Toys set by See D's and watercoloured the images with my marvy markers. The DP is from the masculine paper pack by dovecraft (as you can tell I think this pack is fab). The blue card is by bazzill and onto that I stamped the dashed circle from daisy bucket designs for a little more impact. Sentiment as usual was done on my pc. Thanks for looking.

80th Birthday

I needed to make a card for an 80 year old man. I used an image from the Boys Toys set by See D's and watercoloured it with my marvy markers (I don't think you can see that well in the pic but I added diamond glaze to the wine glass). I distressed the image panel and the green cardstock panel with my heidi swapp edge distresser. This is the first time I've used this tool but I like the finished result, definitely one to use again. The DP is again from the masculine paper pack by dovecraft and I used my pc for the sentiment. The brad is from my stash. For a little extra detail I paper-pricked on the image panel and sentiment panel. Thanks for looking.

It's wedding season!

Here's another wedding card I was asked to make. I only had 20 mins to make this card so for speed used another Lily of the Valley die cut. The DP is from the wedding stack by DCWV and the sentiment was done on my pc. I added a few papermania adhesive stones ('cos I love them!). Thanks for looking.

Another male card

A friend at work asked me to make a farm themed card for her son who works on a farm. I remembered a free set of stamps from a magazine that I had which exactly fitted the bill. I coloured the animals with my marvy markers and mounted them on bazzill cardstock. The DP is from a masculine paper pack by dovecraft (I think). The sentiment is done on my pc and the sticky ribbon is by Anita's. Thanks for looking.

Mens cards are so difficult!

I find making male themed cards so difficult as you can't "pretty" them up like girly cards but hey we need to make them. I was asked to make a card with a guitar on it but as I didn't have any stamps suitable I used a guitar sticker from EK success sticko range. The DP is by basic grey and the blue cardstock is bazzill. The sentiment was done on my pc. Thanks for looking.

Sorry!

I know I've been a bad blogger and not posted anything new for quite a few days. It's been crazy here this week as I had lots of card orders to catch up on. Still a few more to do but I promise I'll be back later with some new cards. Enjoy the sunshine if you're lucky enough to see it. Thanks for looking.

Kitty's birthday card

I made this card for a fellow blogger, Kitty at http://kittyskrafty.blogspot.com whose birthday was last week. I used green cardstock from The Papermill Shop as my base and yet another Penny Black image from Diane (Pink Sunflower), which I watercoloured with my marvy markers. I added stickles to the flower and used my stampendous sentiment stamp. The small piece of dp was also sent to me by a fellow blogger (sorry but I can't remember who - if it was you please let me know so that I can add you onto this post). The flowers and brad are from my stash. Thanks for looking.
