OCC...Masculine Cards

Happy Saturday Peeps, 

It is time for another Our Creative Corner Challenge. 

This week our hostess is the fabulous Tui Nathan from Stampin-Time. Her challenge for us is:

Masculine cards are the type of cards I have the most difficulty with, therefore my challenge is to create a masculine card or project.  However, if you would like a real challenge and to step up the heat a bit try creating a masculine card .... using .... non-traditional masculine colours - plus, any neutrals of your choice.

Masculine cards are very hard for me, it is not something I do much of, I admit I like my ribbon and pearls and embellishments, in other words I like to "girl" it up. So I cringed when I saw this challenge, but hey, that is why they are called challenges, right?

We originally was suppose to make our masculine card with non masculine colors, but Tui modified that when we all complained so much....:(

I did try tho, I used Pool Party and Tempting Turquoise to color the truck, which I think or non traditional colors for a guy card. I added in black, for the base  and to matt the main image. The DSP is from the retired Love Letters paper pack. 

The main image is fro the Stampin UP set called "Countryside". I stamped with black stazon onto very vanilla card stock and colored with my aqua painter and ink pads.

The second layer is a piece of embossed pool party card stock. I embossed with the square lattice EF and then sponged it with some crumb cake ink.  I added two black brads and some twine with two stacked buttons.

Be sure to check the Our Creative Corner Blog to see what the rest of the design team came up with for this fun  challenge.
I hope you can find some time to play along and if you do, don't forget to link it up over on the Our Creative Corner Blog so we can all see it!

Thanks for stopping by today and HAPPY STAMPING!!!!
