AAA Cards Challenge #260: Sketch

 I really like to make masculine cards, because I discovered a big secret a few years ago: men love handmade cards. It's not even about the general look of a card, they simply really appreciate the effort. In my experience, even generally grumpy men will enjoy receiving a handmade card.

For this AAA Cards Challenge I decided to make a masculine card with our sketch. As you can see, I "mirrored" the sketch to make this card. I used stamps of "old" cars and heat embossed those with WOW embossing powder and VersaMark ink. 



Do you make masculine cards often?

Liefs,

Marlies

    Awesome masculine card Marlise. The ombre panel is perfect for those cars.

Stoere verjaardagskaart

 Mijn lieve schoonvader is maandag jarig en hij wordt alweer 63 jaar! Inmiddels is het een beetje traditie dat ik de verjaardagskaart bij het gezamenlijke cadeau maak bij mijn schoonfamilie en het wordt altijd zeer gewaardeerd, ook door de heren. Het papier is "Mr. Fix It" van Mintay.  Deze kaart doet mee aan de volgende challenges: - Challenge "maart 2024" van Cheerful Sketches Challenge Blog; - Challenge #84: cijfer op je kaart van 2 Sister on the Blog; - Patterned Paper Challenge van Double D Challenges. Worden de kaarten die jij voor mensen maakt ook zo gewaardeerd? Liefs, Marlies

AAA Cards Challenge #270: Sketch

 Hi everyone! I got a new set with stamps and dies from Lawn Fawn!!! AND I AM SO EXCITED! It's called "Toucan do it" and it features a lot of amazing animals and funny sentiments. I got them at Hobby Resort .  With the sketch challenge I used my new set of stamps and dies (duh) and Distress Ink.  I made this card for my brother, who was almost graduating college (or for our Dutchies: HBO). He had to get a few more things done and I felt like he could use some support from his big sis! Will you join our challenge at AAA Cards Challenge Blog ? Liefs, Marlies
