Hi everyone! Masculine card ideas do not come easily to me. Looking for inspiration in order to create a card for my brother's upcoming birthday, I came across what I thought was a great masculine card. So I decided to make a similar one. The card turned out to be very attractive. However, the photo just doesn't do it justice.
The only card stock colors I used were kraft and brown. I made the base card in kraft, layered it with brown and then added a layer of digital designer paper (although the design isn't visible in the photo). I stamped my sentiment in Memento Rich Cocoa ink.
For the belt, I cut a strip of brown card stock 5-1/2 inches long and 1-1/8 inches wide. I layered it with a strip of digital patterned paper cut 5-1/2 inches long and 7/8 inches wide. Next, I used my Crop-a-Dile to punch 5 holes, spaced about 1 inch apart. I then used my Crop-a-Dile again to insert the gold eyelets in each hole. The buckle was made in brown card stock using the smallest die from Spellbinders Labels One and the center was cut out with the smallest die from Spellbinders Classic Squares Small. After using adhesive tape to attach the buckle to the belt, the completed belt was adhered to the base card.
