What if? Wed.- My Designer's Choice Challenge

I am hosting the Designer's Choice Challenge at Repeat Impression's blog this week and I am challenging you and the Rock Stars to make a card For the Guys! I love the Legacy series at Repeat Impressions and I chose the Pocket Watch and Geneology background stamp to make this card perfect for a man. Doesn't the watch look so authentic and like an antique? Of course, you have to tease them a bit too, and RI has many funny sarcastic sentiments to make you laugh. I stared with a card and blue layer already cut for me by a paper company that I bought at a stamp show. I stamped the Geneology word background stamp all over the blue layer, removing some of the ink with a baby wipe before stamping to give it a worn look. I stamped the watch and sentiment on the inside and added the Bakers twine for the finishing touch.

You have almost two weeks to make and post a mens or boys card and enter it for a chance at a great prize. Please visit RI's blog for all the details and to see the other great cards by the Rock Stars.

I am entering this card in the challenge at C4C for Male Themed Cards.

Stamping smiles, Karen

    This is a great masculine card. Love that watch and how you have made it peeked thru the window.
