Happy Friday to each of you! And wow- May 31st already. How time flies! Time to start a new challenge over at Wags n Whiskers where one lucky random winner will win a Wags n Whiskers rubber stamp! The theme this fortnight is Father's Day! Something special for the special guys' special day.
I chose to use Shoot the Puck, as hubby is such a huge fan of ice hockey... well, in addition to rugby and football that is lol! I'm not so hot with masculine cards. I honestly usually buy cards for the men in my life *gasp*, unless it fits into a challenge. I much prefer my girlie embellies, and that's about all I have on hand. So, this one is rather lacking in detail but most men like plain things anyway I think. I'm actually pretty happy with this masculine card :) I used an old sketch from somewhere, but I didn't pin it properly so I am unable to give credit where credit is due. I apologize- if anyone knows, please let me know and I'll update!
The colors I used on this card are from his favorite team's colors. Black papers are from My Mind's Eye, yellow-gold ones are from Core-dinations. Any guesses as to which team it is (it is a US team)? Just a tidbit, according to Wikipedia, they are the only state in the US to have the same colors for all their professional sports teams. I'll even make it fun! I'll leave this open for two weeks, and will use random drawing thingie to pick a winner out of the ones who guess correctly in the comments to win a smallish prize! How about a little extra Cheery Lynn die set I have? It is the Lace Corner Deco set A, which includes three corner dies. Please note, this is for my followers only! But please do not become a follower, then leave. That would really make me sad, and believe me... I'm a hormonal roller coaster at the moment (not a bad thing lol). But, more on that at a later date... maybe.
Copics used:
Yellow/gold: Y23/26/28
Black: 100/W2/3/5
Gray: C1/2
So, that's all I have for today. I'm not including close-ups, as I think the picture is pretty self-explanatory. Thank you ever so kindly for stopping by and wishing you a wonderful weekend!
