Today, once again is another creation for Jay Gee's Nook, this time I created yet another masculine card...

I took the Newspaper Background stamp from Hero Arts inked it with black ink and stamped over a trimmed piece of Kraft card stock, I added a strip of My Minds Eye pattern paper down the right hand side of the stamped card stock and adhered this to a trimmed white card. Next, I took the large clock face from the Special Time stamp set and stamped it onto some pattern paper from a notepad collection from K&Company (not sure what the name of this is or if it is still available) I trimmed the clock face out and added it to the front of the card using foam dimensionals. I finished the card, by stamping a sentiment onto a piece of trimmed white card stock and cut a V in one end, adding it also to the card front with foam dimensionals.
So by adding a few elements and keeping the tones of the card pretty neutral you can create beautiful masculine cards.
I hope that this gives you some ideas for these types of cards that sometimes are hard to create...
Okay I am off to check out what the DT gals have created today and relax before heading to work...
Just adding a note here, I know that I promised to announce the winners of my blog candy giveaway, I will be doing that soon, work has been crazy and with so many wonderful comments this will take some time, so once I get past my few days at work, I promise this will be announced so stay tuned. Sorry for the delay!
Have a wonderful rest of your weekend...
Hugs
