I don't know how many of you remember this, but I never make cards for guys. Everything I want to do makes the card look too girly. I have a really tough time with it.
My first thought when I read masculine card was the colour combination .... black, white and red. Not that those colours are only used for a masculine card, but it's what came to my head.
And then I broke out the Lattice Sizzix die from Stampin' Up! (that I bought months ago and had never used) and went to work.
I don't know how masculine the card is, but ....
*Cardstock: PTI White; Stampin' Up! Basic Black, Riding Hood Red

*Ink: Versafine Onyx Black
*Tools: Big Shot; Stampin' Up! Sizzix Lattice die
*Challenges: LessIsMore#7
It took everything in me to not add some bling to this card!!!
FANTASTIC card Nancy

ReplyDeleteperfect Nancy!!
ReplyDeleteI like it! Great design :) If you don't have any, get some Distress Stickles- they're the perfect 'bling' for male cards, and would look fab spread over your die cut shape :)
ReplyDeleteGreat card and very masculine. x
ReplyDeleteWorks for me! I think you've made a great male card. Very striking.
