Never Too Old to Party!

Good morning. 
It's my turn to host the challenge at Cardz4Guyz and as some of you regulars may know I love a sketch! So here is one for you to play along with, just make sure your card is suitable for a guy.


The sketch is just a guide but the main elements should be visible in your make.
Here is a card I made for my bestie's partner last month.


I used a panel of NitWits paper that I had in my DP drawer and used B99 Copic marker to create the coloured cardstock for the circles and strips. I find this a great way to match the elements to the actual coloured image without cutting into my card stash. 
Our partying friend is Ai as is the sentiment but I cut off the top half of it by masking the stamp as I was inking it up. He is placed onto a die cut circle that I embossed with a Sizzix Argyll EF. 
Quite a simple card and so much easier as I was working from a sketch, I just had to decide on the colours used.

I'm looking forward to seeing your takes on my sketch, you've until Monday March 3rd to get your thinking caps on! There's even more inspiration from the team here.

  3. Great sketch! I think your old guy looks like he's having an absolute ball! Super colouring and well-chosen paper. The white background of the card and the paper keeps things clean and uncluttered. Thanks for joining in with my CAS Masculine challenge at The Paper Players this week. :-)
