Cards for Guys...Day 2...Die Cut Motorcycles

Today I'm sharing a few more guy-cards...
created to build my stash of guy-birthday cards...and Father's Day cards

I used a great motorcycle die for today's cards...
"Motorcycle"... by Frantic Stamper

On each of today's 4 cards
I used an assortment of prints and metallic card stock colors for die cutting and matting
along with an assortment of sentiments.

I created 2 Father's Day cards....and 2 birthday cards....

First up...
The Father's Day cards...

The motorcycle die cut has lots of nice details 
and the silver version stands out nicely against the darker print mat layers.
I wanted to add a pop of color, though...
so I matted the sentiment piece and the image layer with red metallic card stock.
On each of today's cards, I positioned and popped the image layers up 
with a piece of self adhesive fun foam.


For the second Father's Day card I chose a great blue and grey print 
and paired it up with silver metallic card stock.
I hand cut two banner shapes..one to position the image on..'and one for matting.
I did the same for the sentiment banner.
The image banner and sentiment banner were positioned with fun foam for a nice sturdy lift.
I also used the silver metallic card stock for matting the print layer.
(I'm really liken this card....the blue and silver together...  are nice, I think)


I also created two birthday cards with the motorcycle die.
Both have split card fronts...a card design that I like and have created many times in the past.
I chose an argyle print...and used black and silver metallic card stock for matting.
The sentiment banner was hand cut and matted.
I used dimensionals to position the sentiment banner.

I used the same sketch/design for the second birthday card.....a split front.
To switch it up a bit....I chose a different print.


With adding today's 4 cards to the cards that I have on hand...
I feel good about my growing guy-card stash.

But...
I'd still like to add a few Father's Day cards...
and guy-birthday cards to my collection.

I have something in mind....
and will work on creating a few more cards within the next few days.
