Ask almost any cardmaker which cards they
struggle with the most and they will answer “masculine”. For me, masculine
doesn’t present quite as much of a problem as “young masculine”. This is for my
nephew, who turned 11– not an easy age to make a card for, unless you’re
willing to find out what the latest fad is and get busy with some punch art.
So I went with the gorgeous new Alphabet
Press embossing folder, used on Early Espresso Core’dinations cardstock and
sanded slightly. I added a greeting on a panel made with the Chalk Talk
Framelits and sponged the edges with Crumb Cake ink.
But it was still missing something. Aha! A
finger! Vintage, masculine and suitable for almost any occasion. Love it.
Oh, by the way, inside the card it says
“{YOU} Happy Birthday”
