This card was made at our Stamp Club meet up this month. I love our
little get togethers as they are fun, idea sharing & every month one
of us gets the freebies as a host. This month was Kaszazz month, so I
get to show the group something new, get their imaginations flowing,
etc. I do the demonstrating for the Kaszazz month & a friend of mine
does Stampin' Up! the alternative month. This way, we get a great cross
section of stamps, colours, dies, embossing... the list goes on &
on.
Anyway, back to the card at hand. A quick run down on what I
came up with, Apart from being all Kaszazz products.... lol. The
papers.... I used one of the designer series 12x12 sheets (Funky Forest 2941 Lagoon Flourish Stripes) for the background colour of the car (page 64, Retro Car 4494J of the main catalogue) stamped & fussy cut around the car, all stamping was done with "Memento" black ink pad as well as the sentiment which is from the newest catalogue. I used the "Tags #3" (2915) for the label (black card stock), I "stamp dyed" the wide
striped navy & white ribbon plus a tied checkered black & white
thinner ribbon on the tag, vanilla card stock & a fine nibbed art pen
for the roughly drawn lines around the outer edge. I enjoy coming up
with "male themed cards" it's a good challenge if you get bored with the
flowers & lace of female cards. Let's face it, if you make cards a
lot.... then you most probably have tons on female cards.... more than
you have to give to friends & family for a lifetime...lol
Talking of "Challenges", I have decided to enter this one into "The Stamp Spot" Blog Challenge the month of April, as it is "Masculine Cards and Paper craft projects".
