Origami shirt

Good evening crafters,

I hope you are all well.  Tonight i want to share with you a card i made for one of my Paper Lane DT projects using the DCWV Collage Musings stack pack. When i saw this 'measuring tape' paper i knew i had to make a masculine card with it.  The origami shirt was made using paper from the same stack pack.  I made this card into a Birthday card but it could just as easily be a Father's Day card.

And a close up:

Supplies:

Paper: DCWV Collage Musings stack pack, brown card stock and cream card base

Inks: Tim Holtz (Walnut stain) distress ink

Sentiment: Stampin UP! birthday wishes

Tools: Close to my Heart distressing tool

Adhesives: glue stick, double sided tape and dimensionals

Brads & large paper clip

Thank you all for visiting.

     Hugs, 

Get Shirty!

Good evening crafters, hope you are all well and looking forward to the weekend. The weekend starts here today so yipee! As my cards tend to be more for the ladies i decided it was time to create a card for the boys today. I must admit that i do find it much harder making masculine cards but i did it, here it is.
