Those dreaded cards...cards for men/ boys!

 

I was recently asked to make some cards for

some males... music, sport & graduation.

 

 First up, is the music card...for Lewis.

I decoupaged the ipod and used glossy accents on the window and button.

The music and the microphone were images on my pc that I have had for ages.

The backing paper is a sticky paper that I love...bought it

years ago, in Paperchase.

It's covered in music stuff...drawings of guitars, hifis, stereos, headphones, allsorts!

A bit of dry embossing round the edges finished this.

 

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

Make it Monday - 151 - anything goes (ends 4th August)

 Good ol' wrapping paper again!

Can't believe I have only just thought of buying it to use on my cards!

Think this one cost me 20p for the sheet...and I could prob make about 10 cards from it!

I backed all the pieces on card to give them more strength, then decoupaged the balls,

so that they stand out from the page.

I twiddled about on the pc to make the sentiment on the blue square.

I'm quite pleased with this one!

 

I would like to enter this into the following challenges...

Pile it on - 30 - anything goes (ends 3rd August)



Finally, this one was made using some of my pc images, and backing paper.

I decoupaged the scroll and balloon

and tried to make sure the sentiment looked like it could be handwriting.

I was asked to add something to do with music.. and as a final thing,

I popped on a brad in the shape of a camera.
