Happy Saturday,
I am back on Hochanda today at 9am, 1pm and final call at 5pm with my new Camellia and Hydrangea flower collections. I thought I would share a more masculine card today using the Press Cut Hexagons along with the new sentiments and camellias.
I truly believe we can make a mens card simply by choosing more masculine colours we don't have to miss the flowers just simplify the spray you use! It can't all be golf and bicycles!
I used here the Camellias cut in Crafts Too Old Blue linen card and shaded with night izink dye ink pad. Making the flowers in this colour really, to me at least, removes the girly look and makes them suitable for mens cards.
The sentiment, form my new Swirl sentiments clear stamp set, is swirly yet simple and works here in black with a few clear crystals added.
I feel that the bold colours really work for a more masculine card.
Join me if you can today on Hochnada to see what else can be made with these flowers!
Enjoy...
Gorgeous card

ReplyDeleteLove this card John the flowers are just beautiful thank you so much
ReplyDeleteLove June Horrocks xxxxx
Very nice card. I think a woman could enjoy, not just the men.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers look like blue daffodils to me. I have yellow ones blooming all over the yard but blue would be fantastic if they came in blue.
Have a wonderful weekend. I am sure your show will be a sell out.
