Manly Monday Boat

Welcome back to Manly Monday. I'm typing with gloves on so please forgive me if I make a typing error and don't catch it. It is chilly in my basement where my studio is located and I have to take drastic measures to stay warm sometimes.

I have five wonderful ladies sharing their manly cards today. I hope you will stop by each blog and leave them a comment. Everybody loves comments-well I know I do. Click on the blog name to be directed to the card and then take a look at what I've created for today.






My manly card today uses a Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous boat stamp. I used the reflection technique to create the reflection in the water. I enhanced the sky and the water with distress ink by Ranger and then sprayed the image with water since distress products react with water. The cloud is a Unity Stamp Co stamp and I filled it in with Liquid Pearls by Ranger. Then I put it all together with some scrap blue cardstock and Recollections black cardstock and added the American Crafts sentiment sticker.

Thanks for looking.



Challenges:

Elsa Sponsorship Card

Sassy Studio Designs is sponsoring the challenge at Not Just Cards and I made this Elsa shaker card for it. The image was printed out onto Ranger Industries watercolor paper and then colored in with a water pen and some distress inks. I die cut it out with a Spellbinders die and then cut the patterned paper by Studio G with the next size up. I made the shaker card onto glitter paper by The Paper Studio and with confetti by Bag of Chips Productions. The sentiment is a Hero Arts stam that I stamped onto vellum by The Paper Studio with Versa Mark ink and heat embossed with Ranger Industries blue embossing powder. I ran the vellum through my Xyron and adhered it to the card front. The little squiggle by the sentiment is from a bag of Dress me Up button thingy's. 

Thanks for looking.
