It's time for a new sketch at
Freshly Made Sketches! Today we have a sketch by
Cécile.
I thought about a variety of seasonal options - falling leaves, snowflakes, Christmas ornaments - but I have a whole lot of birthdays next week to make cards for, most of them masculine. So I decided to pull out some masculine paper and use the circles to give it a celebratory look.
Thanks to Cécile for the sketch because I like how this turned out. I find it so hard to do masculine but still have it look like a celebration. I did sneak in a few puffy dot stickers so there is some embellishment (or "bling" as my guys say with a bit of disdain) but I think I'll get by with it with the clearly masculine papers.
I hope to see you playing along!

The "2" comes from an older die set - Negative Dot Numbers from My Favorite Things.
This is fun Kim, I like your mix of patterns!

ReplyDeleteThis is such a great card Kim! I love all those different patterned papers! Definitely a great masculine card!

ReplyDeleteWow Kim! This is a wonderful masculine card! And a perfect take on the sketch with all these pretty DSP that work so well together!
ReplyDeleteThis is the perfect masculine card. Love the patterns and "bling" too!
ReplyDeleteThose patterned papers really set the perfect stage for a masculine card. And maybe we need a new word for bling on a man card...ding a ling doesn't sound too girly!
ReplyDeleteA marvelous selection of 'masculine' patterns/colours with a bit of 'bling' (stated with glee *grin*) that pairs perfectly! Love this...and I bet the guy on the receiving end will, too!
