JUST ADD INK #60 - CARD FOR A GUY

I wanted to challenge myself, to not include any flowers or butterflies, on my second entry for this week's Just Add Ink challenge ..... these colours work so well for both of those beauties of nature, don't you think?



One of the new stamps that is coming out in Stampin' Up!'s Autumn/Winter Mini (released 1st April), is Motorcycle.  One of my brothers is a diehard Harley rider, so I HAD to have this stamp.  Here's what I've done with it:



Stamps: Motorcycle (*available 1st April), Party This Way, Sanded, Well Worn
Card: Crumb Cake, Old Olive, Whisper White
Ink: Crumb Cake stampin' pad, Old Olive stampin' pad, Rich Razzleberry stampin' pad and marker, Jet Black Staz-on inkpad, Basic Black stampin' pad, Basic Gray marker
Other: Blender Pens, Mat Pack and paper piercing tool, Colour Spritzer tool, Word Window punch, Modern Label punch, sponge dauber, Linen Thread, edge distressing tool, stampin' dimensionals, Crop-a-dile, Jumbo eyelet (Pewter)

    What a great male card! As soon as I seen the colours I thought of flowery stuff too. You've done a great job thinking outside the box. I think I might have to get that stamp now :)

    This is such a perfect male card Christine! The first thing I thought of with those colours was flowers..........so for you to pull a male card off using them.......well you are just the cleverest girl around! Just about to email ya!
