ONE BUSY SHOP - Cynthia Stevenson, Stampin Up! Demonstrator

Hi, today’s card is another “masculine-themed” card so the title, One Busy Shop, makes sense because that’s where my husband spends a lot of his time.

And, I’m playing with the Gears & Textures Bundle(166854) again with another great design from the Weekend Adventure’s designer series paper(167312).

I started with a card base of Crumb Cake, stamped some of the images on it and then added the designer paper on an angle. I cut the piece of designer paper to 4-1/4″ x 6″ to make sure that it would cover the area I wanted it to. The rest was die-cutting and using some pieces that I had previously cut. Unfortunately the two shiny gears were cut from specialty paper that is no longer available.

That perfect sentiment is from the Nature’s Symphony stamp set(166919).

The Paper Players posted their Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge for this week and I chose to play along with the last line across.

Here is the (shorter) list of products used.

What a great masculine card, Cynthia! The mix of colors you used work beautifully together. I love the metallic cogs. The stamped section adds a lot of interest. Thank you for playing in my challenge at The Paper Players this week.

Very fun man card, Cynthia! My husband spends a lot of time at his work bench in the garage too : ) Love that great flannel plaid pattern. Thanks for playing along with The Paper Players this week!
