July 13, 2016 - IT'S A MANS WORLD - THE HOUSE THAT STAMPS BUILT





This month it was my choice for the theme  over at THE HOUSE THAT STAMPS BUILT  - and I choose It's a Mans World - I sometimes have trouble with masculine cards - so I wanted to see what my team mates came up with for Man Theme cards.  I think you will enjoy what they have designed this week for you.

I chose    9120-M Harley   and 9115G Born to Ride  from BIG BOY TOYS from REPEAT IMPRESSIONS.   I embossed the Harley in black embossing powder for the shiny look as well as the sentiment.  Cut out the black borders on both the Harley and sentiment using  the Perfect Border Ruler which once I learned out which exacto to use I LOVE it.  I borrowed my friend Cheryl's great dies called gears and how much fun they were to use.  I also had some steel gear embellishments that I bought from our new Hobby Lobby store which is about a mile from my house (way to close).

 Hoping you will create a card using our themed inspiration to enter our challenge over at
The House that Stamps Built.  You don't have to use Repeat Impressions stamps but if you do you will get an added bonus of an additional entry in the random drawing for a $25 Repeat Impressions gift certificate. HINT - take a peek over on my side bar and you will see a 10% discount on Repeat Impressions stamps.  We would love to see you create something.


Now why not go check out my DT team mates and see what they have created.

What a fun card - however I have a girlfriend that this would work really well for too. LOL.

What a fun challenge, Shirley! I love the Harley all embossed, and goodness...those gears are the perfect finishing element! Great job, dear friend, and what a fun theme!!! Thanks for frying my poor lil' brain just a bit :) Hugs!

Great challenge and a fabulous masculine card. The gears really were the perfect addition. And a Hobby Lobby within a mile from your house . . . I'm so glad my craft stores are 30 minutes away or I would be broke!
