Masculine Card

I often struggle with masculine cards, howeverI have recently discovered that if I keep the card simple, clean cut and add a little metal it can be quite easy.

This card uses the Pick-A-Petal stamp set and the Sincere Salutation. I have just added the Vintage Brads and a couple of Oval punches and I'm away.

Now all I have to do is to think of a man who will appreciate it!!......Umm! Husband...no! Brother...maybe! Dad....of course!

Surfs up dude!

I can't take credit for this card. My (nearly) 5 year old son made it with my mum when she was visiting. She saw several like this on Splitcoaststampers.

A simple bt affective card using the Pick-a-petal stamp set, Boho Flower punch for the sun and the ripping technique for the sand and sea.

Awesome work.

Ps. My mum had never stamped before she came to visit at Christmas!
