The "flowers" in the sketch turned into squares on my card which gave me an excuse to call this a "man-card." I'll confess that the color challenge at Just Us Girls was real incentive to that end. And in keeping with a no-frills masculine theme I followed the AAA Challenge and turned the square on the sketch to a square of embossing paste using a new-to-me stencil, and the shapes I've used are quite geometric which follows the latest Less is More challenge.
Thanks for stopping by. There's loads of inspiration over at Freshly Made Sketches so be sure to check out the design team cards. I hope you can join us in the gallery!

ReplyDeleteEye poppingly fabulous Jen. Superb CAS design with a minimal focal point. Fantastic take on our geometric challenge and it's great to see you playing along at Less is More as well as the 'embossing' challenge at AAA Cards. That's one gorgeous subtle embossed BG and works a treat with the bold colours of the shapes. Thanks for sharing. x
