A Message Within

Hello All,

I hope this message finds everyone well and happy. For me, Spring has sprung which helps make me a bit happier. I have also been asked once again, to be the guest designer for The Male Room! I jumped at the chance because I do enjoy creating male themed cards and I love this challenge blog and its team of talent. This time they have a sketch for inspiration. Here is my card for today, enjoy!

I am not one to make square cards but when a challenge is given then you should stretch your limits and give it a try. I did design out of my comfort zone and I like the result.

The Male Room

Challenge #138
June 10th - 23rd

____________________

Above: The color scheme is very neutral and muted. Except for the standout orange ribbon. I think it brings the entire card together. Left/Below: Open the flap from the present to reveal a message of holiday cheer. Right/Bottom: You can see from this pic the card has a bit of lustre and sparkle. Yes, sparkle on a male themed card is okay, I think. You will see the sparkle on the ribbon.


Well, that is all for me!! I want to thank The Male Room again for this amazing opportunity to be their guest designer this fortnight. I also want to thank you for taking the time out of your busy day to join me at TheGrandStampede. If you are new to my blog, please consider following me to get all my postings. If you are so inclined to leave a comment and let me know how I am doing, that would be great too.

I hope you all have a fantastic day and lots of good crafting vibes headed your way. Stay safe and healthy!!

All the best,

at
