We have plenty of males in our family and masculine birthday cards are always a challenge for me. This one has lots of texture. Embossing, sequin waste, hairy stringy braid (I 've had it for ages and never used it, I think its very manly). The transport EF lightly rubbed over with ink, chopped down to four images, and popped up with 3D foam tape.

What a great sentiment for these fun embossed images! So great for a guy card, too - great job! Thanks so much for playing at Make My Monday!
ReplyDeleteHi Carol I am not the best with male cards either but you nailed this, it looks fab and very masculine. Hugs Janette xxx

ReplyDeleteWhat a fab card Carol. I love the fun images and the sequin waste looks awesome. Thanks for sharing wit h us at AAA Birthday this month. Hugs, Denise x
ReplyDeleteI love it. When my son was tiny and anything with a siren and lights came past he always said 'I hope nobody is in trouble'. This reminded me of that. Thanks for joining my challenge over at Make My Monday. Love Dawn x
ReplyDeleteI love all the textures you've used, and they work so well together. The sentiment is perfect because I can totally see some kids creating a messy mud creation with those "real" toys. Thanks for joining us at Make My Monday! I hope to see you in the gallery again for our next challenge. Sue - DT
