Hi Everyone, my DT card today is for We Love Stamping
the theme this month being "Anything stamped/Masculine "
I went looking for masculine theme stamps and came across these fitness stamps. As I have a few serious fitness men in the family, I thought I would add it to my ready made stash box, for one of them, maybe?
I stamped the sneakers and die cut them with a cross stitch die. Then my mind wandered, and I didn't know what I intended to do. So off to view some sketches and came across this Mojo '537, and knew it would be just right.
I die cut another larger circle and painted the edge over the cross stitch pattern. I layered the first circle onto it. Then stamped another pair of sneakers and coloured them with DI's, they were 3D'd onto the first set.
The cup was stamped and painted with silver ink. I chose a star stencil, well, a champ is a star right? I used 2 of the colours on the sneakers.
The circles and cup were added to the main card, all re the sketch.
stamps - Magazine freebies
inks - Distress inks, chipped sapphire, hickory smoke, lost shadow
silver ink - Kuretake
stencil - a gift, no packaging
I hope to see you at the challenge
Highlight Crafts two prizes, collection of masculine themes dies and Poinsettias
The theme of your entry can be any of your choosing and we would love to see Masculine creations, but most important is that the focal element is hand stamped as our preference (or digital). A small added sentiment or other element to an otherwise non stamped card will be ineligible and may be deleted.
A perfect masculine card Faith, would suit a few fanatics in my family as well.

What a fantastic design Faith! I love the way the fade out of the stenciling gives the illusion of depth as well as the way you layered the other elements up. Vicky x
ReplyDeleteGreat card Faith. I particularly like the starry stencil. It is funny but I don't get on with sketches very well. I can never think what to do, but I also suffer from having an element and then not knowing how to take it forward. Perhaps I should have another go with sketches. It clearly works for you xx
