Masculine Card on Crackerbox Palace Friday

It's Crackerbox Palace Friday and I am sharing a masculine card I made with Crackerbox Palace’s stamps and a background technique I learned from Lisa Eisner in the latest issue of Die Cut Crazy. I started with a top folding brown card and a light yellow front piece. I scored the yellow piece every half inch with my Scor-Buddy. Then I dragged a series of inks over the piece (yellow, medium brown and darker brown) to achieve this worn wood look. I cut a hole in the front with a Spellbinders circle die and stamped the ship circle in the inside of the card. I cut the brown circle frame and added some yellow candy dots to the window frame. I stamped the “Just Because”, cut out with a Spellbinders label die and sponged with Scattered Straw Distress Ink while still in the label die. I attached that with pop dots. I had some extra of the front wood piece, so I attached one on the inside too. Here is a look the inside:
