Hello everyone, hope you are ready for the weekend and hopefully with time for crafting and to set you on your way we have a new challenge at Allsorts which is hosted this week by Kirsten who would would like to see "Cards 4 Men".My card is quite a quick and simple one using Penny Black 2827K Song Bird, stamped with versafine back and embossed with detail clear onto linen cardstock which was cut on Cricut Storybook. I added a little watercolour to the image and added a gem for the eye. The branch is cut with a Sizzix die through the Big Shot and the sentiment is from an unmounted sentiment set from Rubber Tapestry. I 'think' the DP is My Minds Eye, but it was a scrap in my stash and the name already gone.

I love it Brenda, and stamping onto that paper has added to the lovely effect. Would you believe I just posted 3 mens cards yesterday lol. Back to the drawing board! I just received an order from Sir Stampalot which I only ordered yesterday...how did they do that, magical fairies working for them!!! Unbelievable service. Hugs

Very nice.. just been to check out the challenge at Allsorts and was really pleased that it's for Men this time 'cos I do find it quite difficult to create a men's card too and I really need lots of inspirations... Hugs xxx
Wow the linen card stock gives such a fab effect with the stamping, especially on this type of card. Great creation.
Happy crafting

That song bird image is so elegant - lovely on the linen cardstock too. Beautiful work.
Great card for a man, Brenda and a bit different from the usual car or sport theme.

Hi! B, such a fab card and like the image/simple is so nice.See you soon,Lou.xx
I always find it difficult to make cards for men and usually resort to 'any car' or 'sport' lol
This card looks excellent and contains neither...
