I always struggle like crazy with making male cards, I'm not a hugely girly girl but do like my ribbon, lace, flowers, gems etc... I bought the fab Painting Max stamp from Pink Gem last week (for the bargainous price of £2.44 plus p&p!!!) so decided to make a card with my new stamp for the Charisma Cardz 'Male' Challenge. This card came together really easily once I'd picked the colours I was going to use on Max, the papers had to be Basic Grey Origins and think the main paper I've used suits 'painting' perfectly. The colours are a touch richer in real life but as you know by now I can't take a decent photo ;-)
Card blank - Craftwork Cards
Papers - Basic Grey Origins (I've used a whiteish paper under the green stripey paper and a strip of green across that I've torn to expose the white core
Image - Painting Max from Pink Gem Designs (he's on offer til the end of Feb for £2.44!)
Sentiment - Craftwork Cards
Lime green button - Basic Grey, think it was from the Lemonade pack?
White string - Ikea
