Morning all. I hope you are all having a good week. I've been so inspired lately and the cards have been coming thick and fast. I have a whole list of subjects and themes I've been working through and I've been so pleased with my progress. All I need to do is add the cards to the correct post when the time comes. So, today's theme at Cardz4guyz is 'Yellow, blue and grey'. Off I go to pull out a card that I am particularly pleased with. I've managed to incorporate a lovely new die that I purchased recently - a floral image in a frame. Wait...a floral image on a Guy card! Rats!
Back to the drawing board quick.
I promise, the background strip and the matted layers are yellow. I had an awful time getting this to scan and the colours just don't look right. Sorry.
That being said, I am really chuffed with the result. I was searching for suitably coloured backing paper and found a sheet with all those cranes on. They were spaced out beautifully for die cutting panels. I've cut a whole sheet of them. I think they make lovely toppers.
Ok, lets see your yellow, blue and grey GUY cards.
Thanks for reading.
Love Dawn x

Some times it takes getting our "knickers in a twist" for us to roll out perfection!! This card is perfect for our current "blue, yellow & gray" color challenge over at Cardz 4 Guyz!! What great inspiration you offer for those who decide to play along with us.
ReplyDeleteAwesome masculine card Dawn, I love the gorgeous crane images!

Fabulous male card, the images are brilliant. Emma
ReplyDeleteWhat a sophisticated, timelessly lovely greeting. While they might not be every guy's fave, I've found that flowers can often be worked quite well into many masculine designs - especially if one makes them in materials such as cork and burlap, as well as patterns like woodgrain, plaid, maps, and themes pertaining to both sports and nature.
