Morning all
I have a Male Card this morning, and believe me I cannot make them very at all, I so love sparkly things and really you cannot put all the lovely embellishments on a male card, I am looking for some new charms so hope to have them soon.
I normally try and buy a card if is for a male relative I know BUY a card which I hate doing but some of my family are really difficult to find the right thing!
So here it is, I have printed a quality image of a formula one car and then just mounted it onto some black and silver card. I then decided as this was not very interesting to put an acetate dome on the front but make it a square one instead of a round one so it would fold flat to put in an envelope for posting.
Added 2 shades of ribbon to tie in the colour scheme, added the sentiment text in 3 different fonts just so it was a little different and hey presto. I have even personalised the insert by fading the image of the formula one car inside, this fits the whole of the insert rather than just a small picture which has been faded into the background!
hope you like it, I have my mums anniversary card to do this week so will be posting that soon please do pop back to see it.
Hugs

ReplyDeleteYES I know the feeling Mel ! I'm just the same - I really hate making men's cards too ! But I really like this idea with acetate, it's just something a bit different isn't it ? Might have to " pinch " this idea !!! :0)
