Masculine Cards

Started off creating a card for my card club exchange which needed to feature some of the paper I brought back from London so decided to combine that with the masculine card challenge on Crazy 4 Challenges. Here is what I managed to create!! I decided to make more than one because it is nice to have some on hand.
I used this really nice kraft paper which is printed with black glossy round images! My favorite of the papers I brought back. I embossed in black embossing powder the images I stamped so they would coordinate with the paper. I cut out the images with my circle cutter, added some doodling to the edges with black sharpie and cut black circles to layer them onto. Used eyelets, fiber and printed greetings on a few of them. The others I stamped with bleach on the black to get the warm brown lettering!! Very cool!!
One morning! Five cards using the same supplies but all different!! Success!!!

My Art - Yalpha for April

It is time for spring!! My Yalpha mingle page for April features the letter F for flowers and friendship!! Loved this rose image - a used commercial greeting card - so decided to use it for my page this month. I sanded the edges just a little for a distressed effect. Added a hand drawn F on vellum which is overlaid by torn vellum with a Friendship quote. The quote is stamped in pink and embossed in clear EP. I used eyelets to attach my vellums to the page and aligned the top eyelet to also attach my flower to the back of the page!! Lots of fun and a bit of different look than I usually put out! Very happy with it!!

Our snow is almost all gone!!!!
