Monochromatic Masculine Cards For the Celebrating Parents Card Drive at Altenew

Monochromatic cards are perfect for masculine cards as I show in my newest video and I created the cards in this blogpost specifically for guys as part of the Altenew Celebrating Parents Card Drive. Here is a brief explanation of this great cause from their blogpost:

"Mother's Day and Father's Day are approaching, and this can be a difficult time for seniors who are in nursing homes or shelters. We want these important people to feel loved, celebrated and honored, so we have organized the Celebrating Parents Card Drive."

Altenew is collecting these cards until April 20, 2022. I will be sending a bunch of my cards for both men and women to the #AltenewCardDrive including those shown here today. All of these cards feature the new Sizzix Tim Holtz Simple Plaid background die. Here is the card I made in the new video here: 

I cut the plaid background diecut down for this card and embossed the whole card with a SU 3D embossing folder. The fishing dies are from a set called Gone Fishing from Gina Marie Designs. Here is a look at the inside of this card and another in greys and blacks:

To see how easy this card was to make and many more cards, watch the new video here. And if you have any extra masculine or feminine cards you could share for seniors in nursing homes, please read this blogpost and consider sending them to Altenew to cheer someone with your handmade cards.
