Today I have a lovely card to share with you. One that I'll give to a boy. Masculine cards can be quite tricky. I just went for a simple and easy card.
Masculine cards can be hard to make especially when you're used to blinging everything and choosing girlie colours. Masculine cards tend to be plain and simple. especially for beginners like me. colours are important too. Blues yellows Greens Reds Oranges Browns are common in masculine cards. The patterned paper used are more plain and simple, lines instead or swirls dots or circles instead of flowers. These are just some tips to help you guys with masculine cards. I hope it helps a little with your guy cards in the future.
First I got some backing paper and adhered it to my base with my ATG gun. I cut out the access using my tonic scissors. I grabbed some toppers from my stash and picked one I thought would be suitable. its tricky trying to find something not feminine especially when it comes to forever friends. They are so cute. I just hope this guy isn't too cute.
I used some PVA glue to stick my topper down and got some white card stock and stamped my sentiment with memento tuxedo black in. I stuck it to the top of my card. I love how plain this card looks and I hope the recipient will be happy with it.
The simplicity of this card is nice. Boys tend to not really care for bling or other accents on their cards. I bet any guy would be happy to receive this card
That's all for now
