Man Card Deplete, Again?

Oh no!!!

In checking my stash of masculine cards,

I see that there is only one left again. So you will be viewing a lot of cards for men in the next few days with the exception of one surprise.

Here is todays...

I pulled out three Pixie Dust Paperie Kits

to come up with most of my supplies... Canary and Kraft AC cardstock, Pink Paislee - Back 2 School and Curriculum and a My Minds Eye brad.

Did lots of inking (Ranger's Vintage Photo 

Distress Ink) and distressing (Tim Holtz Paper Distresser). Borders were punched with MS Scallop Dot Punch.

Embellished with Tim Holtz Salvage Stickers

and stamped one of June's yellow tickets with my sentiment.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges...

Sugar Creek Hollow - Masculine

Stamping Scrapping Challenge Central - Masculine

Have a Happy Day!

Country Estate

This card is a bit different...

not my usual color pallet, but something I wanted to try.

The papers are both sides of Webster's Pages Country 

Estate - Restful Retreat and Core'dinations Core Amore - Rendezvous. I used the Tim Holtz Paper Distresser on both, then inked with Ranger's Antique Linen.

I used the Die-namics Butterflies die (all three) to make 

the stacked butterfly and Spellbinders Labels Two and Lacey Circles for my sentiment. Added a My Minds Eye brad and edged with Antique Linen Distress Ink.

A Tim Holtz Memo Pin holds the Prima Bird Vintage 

Trinket that I colored with TH Silver Alcohol Ink. MS Oak Leaf Punch was used on AC cardstock for the leaves, Prima and Recollections flowers and trim from Frog Feathers.

Recollections bling adds the finishing touch.

I'm entering this card in these challenges:

Truly Scrumptious - Anything Goes

The Emerald Faerie Garden - Anything Goes

Make It Monday - Always Anything Goes

Have a Happy Day!
