I think this falls under the category of masculine. I like how it turned out.

Catching up with my card-a-day-self-challenge...

I’m rather pleased with myself with the elements (6!) I used which with the exception of using the new color swatch the rest was accidental.

Elements used:

New peach/gray color swatch
Metallic paper...bird
Bird
Bird punch
Embossed sentiment
Glitter...Stickles on each gray flower.

Excellent Debbie! Masculine with dies and inchies! Awesome.

Pretty card Farley, the colors are so bright! My inches on the above card was that grunge pieces again.

Now caught up with my Card-A-Day...Day 10:

That’s so pretty. I love oranges for fall projects.

Way to go Farley, love the fall leaves and colors.

Wow, that background really shimmers, Farley!

Thanks everyone!

Marianne that shimmer is that TH Distress Mica Spay. I am really hooked on it.

Since I have that new Gemini Jr, I was a die cutting fool tonight. I used a CP stamp and die set that I’ve hardly touched and cut everything twice, stamped using CP inks to match the 2nd color swatch and I am pleased.

Cute card and new toys are so fun!

Thanks Debbie! Loving the Gemini Jr.


Day 12 Card:

Inchies! Boy I could have used an “inchie” die. Badly cut one inch squares but here it is anyway. I stamped a Catherine Pooler background stamp of the trees in 3 different greens, then chopped them up. I used the sentiment inchie to cover up the worst one, LOL.
