CCEE Stampers-Masculine


This week the CCEE Stamper's hostess for the month, Kathy, asked that we make a masculine card for the challenge. Hmmmm...don't know how many men would like this color of green but I'll keep my fingers crossed that the recipient will.

My chevron paper was a free digital download from Julie at Julie Makes Cards. She has it in different colors and is so cool. Thanks, Julie...I'm really enjoying the paper.

My sailboat image is unknown..had it for a while and don't remember where I got it but it has no name or company on it. The sentiment is Inkadinkado-Coastal/Maritime.

I stamped my clouds using an SU circle scallop I punched. I'm using VersaMagic summer sky for the clouds.

Paper: PTI white cardstock, Stampin'Up! Chocolate Chip, and Core'dinations apple green

The ribbon is Wright's and I'm using some old copper gromlets I had for a long time.

We would love for you to come along and join us HERE with your masculine cards.

Those billowy clouds always grab my attention right off the bat, but this time those chevrons won me over! I love the metal accents too, making this an amazing masculine card!

The blue and green on this card makes me think of sea breezes! Love that boat too!

Fabulous sky your created! Blue chevrons are just the perfect background for your sailboats! Makes me wish I was out on the ocean smelling the salt air! Have a wonderful day Brenda!!

After these sailing cards, I want to go and I am not even the boating type (I was years ago just not these days). When I was younger I also used Sea Breeze on my face and to remove all that hair spray from my hair (remember the 80's? LOL) - I hope you used it to or know what I am talking about or after my car story you may send the men in white coats to come get me!!! Beautiful card. Hugz

Brenda this is beautiful - a perfect masculine card! I absolutely love how you did the clouds. I'm going to have to try that technique! Thanks for the shout out on the chevron paper! You did a great job with it!
