HELLO!!

I'm here with CAS-ual Fridays Stamps and were joining in a Sponsor Weekend with the Crafting of Hue Facebook Group!! If you're looking for a FUN and INSPIRING FB Group to join this is an AMAZING one!! 

I'm using the SWEET "Somebunny" Stamp Set today!! This set is SO VERSATILE!! I LOVE that you can use it for so many occasions!! Here's a close up look at this Set!! 

Isn't it the CUTEST!!?? Today I'm sharing a Masculine Card!! I wanted to show how EASY this set makes it to create a more Masculine Design as those are sometimes the thing I struggle with the most because I'm always more drawn to the "PRETTY" Stamp Sets!! So I want to show how you can use any of those Images and make them more Masculine just by the Design and Colors that you use!!

 I Started by Die Cutting my Stitched Panel!! I then used some Therm O Web Purple Tape and Masked off the edges of the Panel!! I wanted to stamp the "Hoppy Birthday" Sentiment across the bottom 2/3 of my Card!! So I placed it in my MISTI Stamping tool and stamped the Sentiment to create my Design using some Grout Grey Ink from MFT!! This is one of my FAVORITE Grey Inks!! I use it ALOT and LOVE that it can go either Grey or Kraft depending on what colors you pair with it!! Once the Stamping was all done, I Stamped and Embossed the Bunny Image using Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and Embossing with WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! If you follow me you know I LOVE to Emboss ALL of my Images because of how BOLD it makes them look especially after coloring it!! I used Copic Markers!! (Bunny: W0, W2 & W5   Cheeks and Inside of Ears: R11  Balloon: R43, R46 & R89) 

I added some Tonic Studios Shimmer Pen to the Balloon and the Cheeks and Inside of the Ears on the Bunny, then I added some Morning Dew Nuvo Drops to the Balloon for some Dimension and Shine!! I inked the Sky on the Panel with some Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink and added some Water Splatters for some Texture!! I also added some Black Soot Distress Paint Splatters and I LOVE the extra touch it adds to the design!! I adhered the Bunny onto the Panel using Foam Tape and then finished off the design with a few Pretty Pink Posh Silver Jewels!! A NND Scalloped Frame Die Cut from some TE Oreo Cardstock finishes off the Design!! I hope I've INSPIRED you to try to create some Masculine Cards using those "CUTE" Images in your Stash!! 

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by today and I hope you'll check out the Crafting of Hue FB Group if you're looking for a Friendly and Inspiring Group to join!! 

Have a FABULOUS WEEKEND!!
