Cards for men

Everyone tells me they find making a card for a man quite daunting so I have made  a series of cards suitable for men and I would like to share them with you over the next few weeks  and I hope that you may find some ideas that you like .       I have used Graphic 45 papers for the backgrounds and the cut the clocks from the paper and and 3ded them onto the card out clocks. Everything else  is from my stash. 

Birthday Cake Tea Light

I made this Birthday Cake Tea Light for a little gift recently. I used Spellbinders Scalloped Circles for the base and glued card to the outside of the tea light, added paper flowers and punched butterflies.     I made a little box for the cake from coordinating card.            

Prima Watercolours.

Image
I was looking for a way to highlight the new Prima watercolours available from Blue Edge Crafts so I thought this was a way to show all the colours on one card. This is the Basic Colours set. Just a smudge of each colour in the range and an image from my stash to finish off a very simple card . Thank you for visiting my blog this week.

Altered Printers Tray

    I made this altered printers tray for my sister- in- laws  birthday. I added family photos, charms, Prima embellishments, lace  and chipboard elements to complete the frame.       

Elegant Elements

  I used a silver background on this card and while it looks effective in real life, it didn't photograph very well. I have used a Elegant Elements image from Blue Edge Crafts as well as new coloured edge stickers from Sticker Store.    

Graphic 45 Artisan Papers

    Another of the new Graphic 45 range named Artisan. I have layered the paper on black card and added a Prima Wooden Embellishment..   I think this one could be suitable for a New home card.   Thank you for visiting my blog this week.
