Stampin' Up!'s Owl Builder punch is a great tool to use for male cards, especially when teamed with some texture, sponging and woodgrain.
On this card I've used a few products that will be available for FREE (with qualifying orders) during Sale-A-Bration, an exciting two months with Stampin' Up! - commencing 22nd January. See the cute, tiny, sentiment stamp? It is punched out with an equally tiny Curly Label punch ..... and who doesn't love a co-ordinating stamp set and punch? I'm a sucker for them. The textured die cut is courtesy of a great new embossing folder, that is another Sale-A-Bration freebie.

Fabulous combination of all those lovely tactile elements, Christine! Love how bright & fresh the limeade is with the neutrals. Thanks for the sneak peak too - I didn't realise how petite the new curly label punch actually is! Hugs :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a fab card, Christine. Cute but masculine at the same time (I didn't think that was possible!). Hope Andrew liked it.
