A True Classic Cards


Do you ever have a hard time making masculine cards?  
You are in luck today as I am bringing you a bunch of masculine cards.

Right now Close to my Heart has 2 very masculine stamp sets that are perfect for cards or scrapbooking the men in your life. 

They are A True Classic and the Hawthorn-Cardmaking stamp sets.
I used A True Classic, Strokes of an Artist and Say it in Style stamp sets, New England Ivy, Candy Apple and White Daisy cardstock,  0.5 black journalling pen, ShinHan markers, water brush, Candy Apple, Pebble and Intense Black ink,  Flower Market cartridge and the multi square window die.  
For this Christmas card I cut  the multi square window die with Candy Apple cardstock and then trimmed out the insides.  I cut the trees out at 1.25" using the Flower Market cartridge out of the New England Ivy cardstock.  (I am now a Cricut Affiliate and you can order all your Cricut stuff using my Affiliate link.)  I stamped the saying in Intense Black and Candy Apple, I painted the edges with ink from the Candy Apple ink pad lid using a water brush.  I colored the truck using alcohol markers and then fussy cut.  I stamped the background behind the truck using Strokes of an Artist in Pebble ink, I stamped it multiple times.
I used A True Classic stamp set, Hawthorn paper, watercolor paints, Saffron ink, Intense Black ink and a journalling pen on this card.

Close up.
Used A True Classic and Strokes of an Artist stamp sets, Hawthorn paper, Intense Black, Pebble and Sapphire inks and ShinHan markers.   I used my scissor blade to edge distress the pattern paper. 

For this card I used A True Classic, Hawthorn - Cardmaking and Strokes of an Artist stamp sets, Hawthorn paper, white daisy cardstock, Multi square windows thin cut, black marker, watercolor paints, Intense Black, Sangria and Saffron inks.
I cut out parts of the multi square windows die cut and then colored it with black marker.  TIP: If you don't have a color of cardstock you can make your own by coloring cardstock.
