WWC 321 - Tristan's Challenge: All Things Masculine

 Hi there.   It's time for a new challenge at Watercooler Wednesday Challenge.  Tristan is our lovely hostess with an All Things Masculine challenge. 


My card today is for my friend, Michael, who's birthday was on the 23rd of July.

  
A month or so ago, I brought my first card making magazine in over a year.... they just don't seem to be making it to NZ.  It was Simply Cards and Papercrafting #214 (published in UK in Jan 2021) and it has a lovely free stamp, die and embossing folder set.  I took inspiration from the magazine to make this one.    I used the little embossing folder - it's about 2 1/2" square to emboss a circle.  I then used two grey inks from Altenew to blend over and then rub directly over the embossing.  I stamp the pot, leaves, sign, fork and spade onto some kraft card and coloured them in before fussy cutting.  I used the die to cut the little labels. There is a stamp with the names, but I decided to hand print them.  I added all the elements onto the circle.  I added a strip of burlap and a twine and popped the circle over it.  I stamped the sentiment.  It looked a little stark so I added some lines of embossing done with my scor-pal. 

Come and join in the fun at  Watercooler Wednesday Challenge and check out the project from the other designers.  Then take our challenge and link up your project to the challenge post.    We'd love to have you join us.  You have until Monday at 5 pm Mountain Standard Time (Tuesday at 12.00 noon NZ time) to link up your project.
