I had some fun cleaning-up my scrap pile this afternoon. I saw several projects this weekend that reminded me how much I love die cutting from a paper scrap background ... especially with the larger label dies like this Ornamental.
I had no idea what I was going to make when I was combining my papers, but I did include a few strips of solid Basic Grey designer paper, so I could stamp a sentiment if I wanted to. After playing with several possibilities, I decided I really loved the look of that mustache die cut on top of the papers, so I built my card around it.
Sentiment is from The Cat's Pajamas stamped in Rich Cocoa Memento Ink ... and I decided it would be fun to add a lot of bling to this masculine design. I attached the finished die cut label with foam tape for a bit of dimension.
This card is for more of the Dare to Get Dirty Challenges, as well as for the new Male Room Challenge. I'm also joining the CCEE Stampers where their challenge is a Masculine Birthday.
OMG, Stef...this is just the darn cutest card....so perfect for a guy...thx for playing with the CCEE Stampers this week
