Hi everyone! Welcome to today's CardMaker blog hop! The theme is He’s All That,
and the blog team was asked to make masculine cards. With all the graduations going on right now, I made a masculine graduation card!
Whenever I think of masculine cards I always think of stars and brown tones first. So it's no surprise I went with both on this card. I thought I would have some fun with my star die cuts with a sort of peek-a-boo opening at the bottom. To make this, first I cut off 1.25" from the bottom of the card, next I cut off another 1/2" which would be my opening. Gluing down the stars was a bit tricky, so I temporarily adhered my card to my grid mat and made sure everything was lining up perfectly. There is a lot going on at the bottom, so I added some scored lines all across the top to sort of balance things out.
Check out the other girl's blogs and see what masculine projects they have for you today!
