Designing Women Challenge

It was my turn to post a challenge for the Designing Women group I belong to on PTI. Since we're close to Father's Day I decided to challenge all the Designing Women to make a masculine card (Father's Day or masculine birthday) but no girly ribbons allowed. Twine or hemp is fine. Of course my REAL reason for this challenge is to gather more ideas since masculine cards are usually a bit harder for me to design. I want to see what all our talented women come up with. Here's my take on the challenge - used the new Guiding Light stamp set from Gina K Designs. (I couldn't figure out a card with a PTI set so I went with this one instead - I'm a bit short on time so no time to mull and play - just had to go with my first thought).

Instead of ribbon I also used the new Nautical Netting from GinaK. It's great fun! New wooden buttons from PTI which are threaded with the new rustic cream cord. Image colored with copics.

Can't wait to see what all the other girls come up with.
Have a great weekend!

Pam, your card is stunning! Every detail works beautifully together. Love the sentiment. The colors are gorgeous. The netting and wooden buttons are just-the-right embellishments. This card will definitely help me think about what kind of card I want to do for the challenge. And like you, I can't wait to see what the other Designing Women create. What fun!
