Here are my card details:
I decided to make a masculine card for our hop today! You all know this is a challenge for me right?!!! But I love this moose image from the Father's Day set so just had to try it out! First, I embossed a piece of SU! designer paper with the Cuttlebug Herringbone folder and sponged it with Always Artichoke ink. I stamped the moose twice so I could cut one out for layering. Then I decided he needed to be standing in a field of flowers so added the flower soft! Moose like flowers I am sure! LOL! To balance out the flowers on this manly card I added buttons. I used my Grand Calibur to cut out the Spellbinders square and the new cool Ribbon Tag. So what do you think? So glad you joined us today and hope you love the new sets as much as we do!
Now head on over to the blog of the very talented Connie!!! Enjoy the hop!!!
This is gorgeous Sandee!! I just love the moose popped up, the colors, and the added flower soft. So creative. You are the queen of texture my friend. Have a great day!
