Cards for Guys....Day 1...Die Cut Cars

I needed to add some cards to my "guy-card" stash...
Birthday...and Father's Day cards.

So I got out a favorite car die...
*Die-Versions: "RETRO CAR" Whispers
and created a few of die cut birthday and Father's Day cards.

I used a metal-look embossing folder to add some texture to the main mat layer on one of the cards...
I also used an assortment of prints ...metallic card stock colors...
and sentiments.
I hand cut the sentiment banners and matted them.
I positioned & popped up the sentiment pieces and matted image layers with self adhesive fun foam.

This retro die cut car is great for guy-cards...
I matched it up with a great print and some metallic card stock for matting...
and a simple sentiment.

Because I never seem to have enough guy-birthday cards...
I created 2 of this black, red and grey version.


and..
because Father's Day is coming up...
I created two of this card...
The chocolate metallic mat layer is embossed with a metal-look embossing folder.


I still need to add a few more cards to my Father's Day and guy-birthday card stash...
so I am thinking that I'll make a few more later today...
I have a die in mind already...
and am looking forward to using it to create a short stack of some CAS guy-friendly cards.

Thanks for visiting today. my crafty and creative friends.
have a wonderful day...
and please feel free to leave a comment below.

  3. Thanks Chris for the inspiration for guy cards. I seem to always have trouble making "non-feminine" cards :) Followed you over from FB Stamping Enablers page. I enjoyed visiting your blog! Keep up the creativity.
