MM98 - Swap cards can be so inspiring...!

I'm in a 6 month swap with some fellow demonstrators.  What's a swap?  I make 6 of the same card and send to 6 demos.  They do the same so I receive back 6 different cards.  It's awesome for inspiration!

Today's card for "Manly Monday" is one of those cards and is simply stunning!!!  My photo doesn't do it justice.   It's a wonderful card designed by Eldonna Epp from Calgary, AB.

This would be a perfect card for any gentleman in your life celebrating a birthday, promotion, new job or just about anything.   

I love all the levels of texture in this card!!

Thanks for stopping in today for "Manly Monday"!

Enjoy your week!

MM90 - For all Things....

If you are one of the many admirers of the stamp set "Work of Art", then you're going to love the new "For All Things" stamp set in the Holiday catalogue.   It has that same 'watercolour' style to the images.

Today's card for "Manly Monday" uses only the 'wheat' image with the Faux Wax Seal technique.   

Of course my BIG SHOT was used to embossed the background layer and cut out the leaves, especially making it easier to use this technique on a large piece of cardstock.

I also used:

• colour combo of Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Soft Suede
• "For All Things" stamp set (w-135152,c-135155)
• "@SoSocial" stamp set (w-134189,c-134192)
• Color Me Autumn DSP (135820)
• Woodgrain embossing folder (127821)
• Autumn wooden elements (135846)
• linen thread, rhinestones

Have a super week and thanks for checking out "Manly Monday" today!
