My trusty Color Coach suggested I combine Always Artichoke, Crumb Cake and (would you believe it?) Bashful Blue. I must say I rather like how these colours work together.

Card: Always Artichoke and Bashful Blue textured card, Crumb Cake
Ink: Crumb Cake, Bashful Blue and Always Artichoke stampin' pads

Looks really good Christine. I have used this set a few times for my men/boy cards. Marls
ReplyDeleteYou really are a master when it comes to male cards Christine & showing off the EE set to prime advantage. Love the "splat" "frame" for the numbers. There are so many little details in your card, but it retains its rugged masculinity. Awesome! Do you realise every visit leaves me with a longer "ooh, I think I need that!" list.... Hugs :)
ReplyDeleteGreat Mens card! I find them so hard to do. Love the dash of blue just makes the whole thing pop!

Great card ,Christine. Men's cards are the hardest to design,l think . But you always come up with great idea's
ReplyDeleteWell, I'll have to dub you the Queen of male cards (if that's politically correct). Living in a household of men, you sure know how to make some great cards for blokes! This one would have to be labelled as grungy gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteFabulous Christine! I love the twine ties on your denim ribbon and the colour combo - the Colour Coach never lies!
ReplyDeleteLove it in these colours too, you really make the whole guy thing look easy, l love the ribbon finish.
