For my Manly Monday card I'm taking things down to appeal to a younger masculine crowd. I used a digital stamp by Kenny K called Victory Kid. I printed him out onto Strathmore watercolor paper but I'm not sure how. Now a days my printer won't have anything to do with that thick cardstock. It's irritating that sometimes it works great and the you go to do it again Anyway, I colored the image in with distress inks (Ranger) and Peerless watercolors. He turned out kind of cute and would be perfect for a young boy.
The background paper (My Mind's Eye) has been dry embossed with a star folder (Darice). I didn't think you could see the stars very well which led me to ink the edges with distress ink. I trimmed down a piece of black cardstock (Recollections) and orange dot cardstock (Bo Bunny) for the left side of the card. I matted the image with the same black cardstock.
To finish up this card, I've added a sentiment sticker (Pebbles) which looks like something the image would say.
That's all I have today. I hope you like it.
Thanks for picking me as the winner for the Deep Red Stamps and Xyron blog hop. Just sent you an email

ReplyDeleteSuper image and great card, love the orange and the texture.
ReplyDeleteI'm the same with card and printer, I used to be able to print 300grm, not sure what that is US weight, now I can't do more than 210grm, so annoying.
Congrats to the lucky winner! Just popping in to see who it was! Have a great weekend, Cindy!
