Hello Monday again!
It's now time once again
for another fun challenge with
Ella and her team
at
Theme---Masculine Birthday
Stop by The PiNK Elephant Challenge blog and check out the inspiring work the rest of the team has left for you!
Below is my card:
For this card I used some wooden stamps from Michaels own line, Recollections. I think I picked it up a year or so ago because I was still lacking in masculine stamps. I like the ship, it's pretty classic as are the shell stamps. I stamped the ship with Timber Brown ink onto patterned paper from We R Memories "Indian Summer" pad and the background paper is also from the same pad. I adhered them to an embossed background, I think it's Sizzix. I stamped the seashells in the same Timber Brown and fussy cut them, ran them through my Xyron so they would stick well. The sentiment is from Taylored Expressions and also stamped in Timber Brown. I finished off the card tying some rope knots and sticking to all four corners.

I am 3 cards away from you and I noticed we used the same stamp.. Your card is so beautiful. The shells are proportioned and the knot frame. I just love it and thank you for sharing.

This is fantastic!! Love that color block background and the brown ink for the images is perfect atop that gorgeousness. Love the accent of the shells and the jute. I love this! Thanks for linking up and playing with us at AAA Cards.
Very enjoyable card, I like the inking especially. I mention the Pink Elephant challenges weekly at "Looking 4 challenges" (looking4challenges.com).

It was perfect to emboss that card base on your great card, so glad you could join us at AAA Cards
The patterned paper that you chose for the background is the perfect complement to that ship - it really creates the masculine feel of the card! Thanks for playing along with us at AAA Cards! Jill
