If you’re like me, cards for the men in your life are a point of frustration. When an occasion arises and I have to make a card for my husband or my father or another male relative, I usually get stuck. Most of my stamps are flowers and girly stuff, because that’s what I’m drawn to. Well, I’ve decided to put an end to the all the girly stuff! I bought And Many Mower from the Occasions Mini and killed two birds with one stone!! It’s Father’s Day and Masculine Birthday stamps all rolled into one set!
Here is a sample I made using And Many Mower. As you know I love me some faux watercoloring using my markers and the aquapainter! The image was stamped in Versamark on watercolor paper, and embossed with Black Detail Embossing Powder. The, using Real Red, Old Olive, Creamy Caramel, and Black Markers, I colored in the image, followed by a few swipes of my aquapainter to blend the colors.
I layered the image onto a piece of Riding Hood Red card stock and added a strip of “grass” using Old Olive and my scissors. The card base is Creamy Caramel, sponged with the same color ink for texture. Finishing off the card is a strip of Basic Black card stock behind the main image. Inside, I glued a 4″ x5 1/4″ piece of white card stock and stamped the sentiment that goes with this stamp: “And Many Mower”. So cute!
