Father's Day Wrench Card

Here's a card for for the Father that loves his tools. 
This design came from my upline Amanda Frankel (blog).  It is basically made with punches.  The top of the wrench is made with a circle punch and the label punch and the bottom is a smaller circle and small flower punch.  The background is your basic kitchen tin foil glued to a piece of cardstock and then embossed.

Hooray for Birthdays

I can't remember where I saw this stamp used with decorative paper but I really liked the effect and thought this paper was a great match for the elephant.

The Masculine Card

It's been awhile but I'm finally back with designs I hope you will enjoy.  The first ones I will be posting are of the masculine type.  Guy cards are always harder to come by so when I saw an opportunity to take a class on My Creative Classroom I took it.  It was a simple enough class. Card sketches that really could be used for masculine or feminine cards but they gave a couple masculine samples with each sketch and it really helped me to think about color choices and design.
