I always used to find masculine cards difficult but then I started art journaling and discovered paint. With paint you can do a grungy look, perfect for masculine cards.

Birthday card
Blue is the Colour is this month's theme over on the That's Crafty challenge blog so I chose blue for a birthday card for my son - can't believe he is going to be 29!!!!! I tore bits of book paper to add texture, then brayered different PaperArtsy chalk acrylic blues and added a little stamping. Some raffia and twine with a sentiment finished it off:

No way Susan, it can not be, 29, you hardly look 29! The card is fabulous, love the different tints of blue and the stamping as well!
ReplyDeleteLoving this Susan! When I first looked at it I thought there was a figure in it. Upon closer inspection, I can see it's probably just a blob of paint and not intentional, but it still looks a bit like a figure!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Susan.great card
