Manly Monday

A different colour combo for this week.  I am inspired by the Epic Day Designer Series Paper. It really has a great grunge look to it with cool colours.  Base is Pool Party and layers are Basic Gray stamped with Gumball, Crushed Curry, Pool Party and Basic Gray.  I coloured the white Bakers Twine (very versatile) and punched out some stars with the Bitty Punch Pack.  Used the Hexagon Embossing Folder and stamped the World Map on the background.  I don't think the picture does this card justice.  Looks great in real life.

Manly Monday (Young Man)

I just couldn't help myself... I took advantage of the Weekly Deal and bought the Zoo Babies stamp set so a Young Man card had to be made.

I used Gumball Green, Crushed Curry, Island Indigo, Basic Gray & Baked Brown Sugar inks for the animals.  Love the Gumball Green ribbon with Lovely Labels Stamp Set and coordinating Artisan Label Punch.  Whisper White Base with a layer of Basic Black punched with our circle punches 1", 1 1/4", 1 3/8", and the Large Oval and Extra Large Oval so the animals can peek through. After punching the layer I ran it through the Big Shot with the Chevron Embossing folder.

Happy Stamping
