Masculine Thank You



Masculine cards are so difficult to make. I saw the striped paper at Michaels along with a package of shimmer texture paper and thought they would make a good pair. I tried to keep the layout simple and not too much fussiness that ribbon sometimes gives cards.
I added some stickles to the truck and leaves of the tree to give is some added shine. A paper punch was used for the dots and they were also adhered with a dot of stickles.
After looking at the card, this card could also be used as a Christmas card for a male by using a holiday sentiment.

My inspiration came from this card:

Thanks for looking!

Stamps: Lovely as a tree, sentiment
Paper: Gold texture paper, designer paper, SU black and sahara sand
Ink: SU black and gold ink
Accessories: Foam pop up, paper punch, stickles
