Hello!
Just a quick post with some cards I was playing around with when I had two minutes to myself :)
I love this technique Ashley showed us, just not loving the thing I put on top of the card.
I tried to make it a guy card .
I added Glossy Accents to the controller.
This card below is for colourQ and SSWC
The Congratulations stamp is Papertrey Ink and was an unexpected gift from a very sweet friend. The other stamp is from my favorite real stamp store called Stamp Your Heart Out.
I made these last week and only have a few minutes to post them.
I hope you have a wonderful week.
Your guy card is perfect & I love the congratulations card with the elegant gold & fun sentiment--great combo!
ReplyDeleteWonderful cards Marybeth, I love the embossing. Thanks for joining us at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge” Mandy xx
ReplyDeletecool birthday card for boys, love the perforated frame
ReplyDeleteGuy cards are the hardest! These are both spot on! Such a cute lawnmower, and then in gold, gives an elegant touch. Love the glossy accents too!
ReplyDeleteGuy cards are the hardest for me too, but I think you nailed it on both cards...they're great! :0)
ReplyDeleteWell there's nothing wrong with the guy card using the controller! :-)
ReplyDeleteYour second card is Perfect!!
ha, ha, love the sentiment in gold and such a great way to add bling to this card, suitable as a masculine and feminine card. Love the sequins too.
bye,

Marybeth, both cards are great...I suffer through masculine cards, but I don't think you suffer too much...you nailed it my friend! And "gold" for the lawn mover? perfect!!
ReplyDeleteTwo fabulous cards. The first one is a great masculine card--love those angles and the patterned papers. And, what a fun and elegant congratulations card. Who would have ever guessed that someone made a lawn mower stamp. I love it in gold.
ReplyDeleteBoth of your cards are great. The guy card would be good for men and boys. They all love those games. The gold is great with the silver sequins.
ReplyDeleteMarybeth love both of your perfect cards, the remote is so fun and the gold embossed mower is amazing!
ReplyDeleteOH you are good at the "guy" cards Marybeth!!! I just give all the guys in my family flowery cards! haha! Love the background technique you used on the first one. I missed that Make it Monday, but I still want to try that! And thanks for mentioning that I was the featured designer instead of a guest. I had guest in my post! DIdn't realize there was a difference! I had to go edit :)
ReplyDeletehello mary beth
ReplyDeleteyour cards are unique and stylish and i love them both.
hugs to you.

Good for you, Marybeth! You have 2 fantastic guy cards for your stash!
ReplyDeleteMission accomplished for masculine cards. Way to go! Love the papers you pieced together for the MIM technique. The congratulations looks awesome embossed. :) I'm so glad you found a little time to yourself...I can only imagine how busy you've been the last month.
ReplyDeleteMarybeth these are both marvelous!! I LOVE the golden lawn mower, too much FUN!!!
ReplyDeleteYour guy card looks great. Love the papers! And how fun to have a gold lawn mover--cute card!
ReplyDeleteMarybeth, both of your cards are just so fun! I love your second card with the lawn mower, so fun and just too clever! That patterned paper on your first card is perfect, so fun!
ReplyDeleteLove the glossy accents and that FAB sentiment with the mower!
ReplyDeleteYes, both of my boys would totally love your gaming card. It speaks their language! Your golden lawn mower really made me chuckle : ) Maybe if ours looked like that the lawn would get done more often? Hmm ...
ReplyDeleteFabulous cards for guys! I always seem to struggle with these, but you've created two with totally different feels but both work perfectly! Thanks for playing along with us at the ColourQ!
