I stamp my image in VersaMark and then embossed it with Detail White powder. My next step was to sponge Tumble Glass Distress Ink over the embossed image. I stamp my sentiment in black ink to make it stand out. I just added three silver stickers. I went with stickers rather than brads to help keep it nice and flat for mailing. The designer paper is by SU!, long time retired. That will do it for me, but I would like to thank you for stopping by.
I love the distressing over the embossed image! Totally a guy card. I might also still have some of that paper ...

ReplyDeleteGreat job on this new challenge! I love white embossing. I am also a sucker for striped paper. This card had it all, Donna! I get to stay home and play today, so I better finish up my family Valentine's, huh?

Hi, Donna.
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty! Love how you applied ink to that embossed image. So glad you told me about Leslie's new challenge.
Thanks so much for joining our Do-Something-Different challenge at Words 2 Scrap By!
It's a great guy card, Donna, and I have always loved that image. Bet you wish you were there and it was a hot day. Just think, you could be looking at water instead of SNOW. :-) I love stripes!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Donna, your snow amount sounds worse than ours!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great guy card. Image with the striped background looks great. Stay warm and cozy inside.
Hugs

I really like this one, Donna! That image is wonderful in the white embossing! Great card for that purpose! :o)
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful card for a man. I love this image embossed in white! I like the striped DP, and the colours do make this suitable for a masculine card.
ReplyDeleteFab card Donna, great for a guy and great take on the sketch, hugs Carole Z X
ReplyDeleteCan you tell I'm playing catch up on my visits, Donna? I don't know how my schedule got so full but I'm buried with way too many 'vital' things to do. Maybe I wish it would snow out here on the West Coast so I'd have to stay home. No matter. I'm here now and I just love this wonderful masculine card. I love sea gulls and your color combo is perfect for the white image.
