Masculine cards can be difficult to create. I always want to add a bit of bling. I need to learn to keep it simple. Thoughts?

   Watercolor 5-1/4 x 4

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Evening Evergreen

Markers:

   Granny Apple Green

   Crumb Cake

   Jute Twine 24"

   Adhesive

First, I colored directly onto my clear block using markers. Balmy Blue on the top, Granny Apple Green in the center, and Crumb Cake on the bottom.

I then misted the block with a bit of water, and then stamped my watercolor panel in the center. I left the block for a bit to make sure the color was being soaked in by the paper.

After it was dry, I stamped my trees and sentiment, using Evening Evergreen.

I then adhered the panel onto an Evening Evergreen matte and then onto the Crumb Cake card front.

Next, I wrapped some Jute Twine around the left side and tied it into a bow. You can also just tie a knot for a bit more masculine feel.

Lastly, I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the card.
