Masculine WLSC

 Hi Everyone, my DT card today is for - We Love Stamping 

the theme this month being "Anything stamped, option, "Masculine"

 You know I like making masculine cards, however I had a struggle with this, and then realised I hadn't used a stamp I won from Stamp Addicts in February. 

I stamped it twice with Oxide to make a longer mountain range. I dragged the colour out, then used a paintbrush to add green to the trees and grassy land, as I saw it at the time. 

I added blue for water, stamped a sailing boat and fussy cut (UGH!) it, and to give it slightly more prominence. Then added it to the card. A stencil sky, cut with Silhouette and laminated sheets, was added, a few more colours and a few cloud stamps, I thought an early evening sky was called for? 

The birds and the sentiment were stamped, then the scene was die cut and added to black paper to match the birds and sentiment. 

stamps - Stamp Addicts, mountains and sail boat 

all other stamps - Magazine freebies 

stencil - Sarah Hurley Silhouette Design store #89710 

inks - Distress Oxide, pumice stone 

distress inks - chipped sapphire, stormy sky, tumbled glass, squeezed lemonade, candied apple, bundled sage.

 

I look forward to seeing you at the Challenge, don't forget the theme of your entry can be any of your choosing and we would love to see Masculine creations. The 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.
