How often have you searched for just the right paper and embellishments to make a Card, Scrapbook layout, or other handmade artwork for that special man in your life? Be it your husband, a family member, or a friend, it is sometimes difficult to find the appropriate materials.
This week at http://simonsaysstampandshow.blogspot.com/ the challenge was to create a piece of artwork for Men Only.
Authentique has come out with a collection called Blissful. In this collection there is a very nice paper that has an argyle pattern. The rich, yet muted brown, grey and silver tones were just right for the background of this Thank You card that I created. I used PageMaps for the design layout.
Next I used Tim Holtz's Umbrella Man die and My Mind's Eye paper from the Lost and Found collection to make an embellishment that is sharp and whimsical.
Then I only needed a slice of Teresa Collins' paper from her Giving Thanks collection to add the sentiment and a piece of ribbon from my stash to finish it off.
Thank you for visiting my blog. Let me know what you think of my card.
