Hello there! This is the reminder post for the June CAS Christmas Masculine Card Challenge. There is one week left to get your entries in. Here’s my card.
Man’s best friend was my inspiration. 😊 Started by die cutting an A2 size stitched rectangle panel from Kraft cardstock. Next stamped the puppy with Permanent Black ink on a scrap of X-Press It paper. Coloured with Copics then die cut out with the coordinating die.
I wanted to create a Christmas tree scene since he’s all tangled up in lights. To keep it CAS, I decided to faux dry emboss the “tree” in the background by die cutting a couple of pine branches (forgot brand) from Kraft cardstock and adhering them to the left-hand side. The sentiment was gold heat embossed on a black strip. Mounted the sentiment strip and the puppy with foam tape for a little dimension. To finish, added white liquid appliqué to the hat brim/pompom, and Crystal Glaze to the lights.
Our fabulous guest, Bobby from Bits and Pieces, and my team have made some wonderful masculine cards to inspire you. You can check them out HERE. Challenge ends next Sunday on June 24th. Hope to see you in the gallery. Thank you for visiting. Have a great day!
