Hello, hello!
Well, I love that title, I do wish I had a stamp to go along with it! Maybe next time I'll think of it and print it to use... Anywhoooo, a masculine Birthday card was needed, and since he's a fisherman, I figured this would work perfectly. I used the sketch at FMS #742 but that one came and went before I could post the card.
This card is pretty simple, it only took me two tries - ha! I cut a strip of brushed silver cs and embossed it before gluing it to the base to ground the rest of the card elements. I also cut the hex frame, fishing lure and bobber, then assembled them. I did a bit of blending to add some depth, then arranged everything to my liking. This will go to my SIL this Friday.
Supplies:
HB - Diamond Plate e/f, Fishing Lures dies
EH - Hex frames die
Alt - Birthday Greetings sentiment
I seem to be on a roll. Some cards I had made but not posted, but a few got made during my chaos. I'm glad to be finally getting everything posted but hope I can continue creating too!
Have a great Fourth of July but stay safe! I know the fires have started here already, and we're aware of a HUGE fire on the UT/CO border, that is somewhat near and visible for family members' homes. Our prayers are with everyone for safety!
Hugs,
TK

A perfect masculine card or anyone that likes to fish! I love the metallic enhancements! How scary to have the fires that close to loved ones! I pray they will stay safe!
Love the “metal”. Awesome masculine card
That’s a wonderful card design for a fisherman! Simply designed but still a great masculine look!
Very neat masculine card. Love the metallic elements.
Funny that it only took you two tries! I've made 3 cards this morning and they've all gone in the bin! Yours is a masterclass in masculine cards. From the color to the metallic elements, to that fabulous Tim Holtz Diamond Plate EF piece (well, I think it's that?) - to the clean and simple design they all add up to a fabulous card
Happy 4th!

I love how you designed the card around the lure, TK. I may just have to CASE your card.
