My dad celebrated a birthday this month, so I pulled a few nautical goodies from the shelves and drawers to create this neat masculine card. All of the products that I used are from Stampin' Up!; however, most (if not all) of them have been retired. Here's a better look at the card:
I believe this card perfectly demonstrates how the use and placement of simple products can create texture, dimension, and visual interest . . . the kind of interest that makes someone pause to take in all of the design elements before opening the card to see what's inside. And speaking of the inside, it was decorated, too:
If you ask most card makers what's the hardest kind of card to make, they'll probably say "anything masculine". It's the truth! But . . . the next time you need to make a masculine card, just reach for coordinating products (not flowers, of course) and add ribbon, embellishments, punched shapes, etc. to pull it all together.
WOW Regina Simply stunning as usual. You are so talented and thank you for sharing.
