For The Man In your Life

Hi everyone, it's time for a new theme at Try It On Tuesday - 'For The Man In Your Life'

Please pop over to the TIOT blog and check out what our Design Team are making for their chosen man.

It's Fathers Day soon here in the UK but whatever you make doesn't mean  can't be for any other occasion or any other man in your life.

I made a Birthday card for a friend of ours.


 I used Distress inks to create the evening sky. I used a sponge tip make up applicator and Versafine ink to fill in the gaps in the stamp design to give a darker silhouette.

Our friend was brought up in the countryside so this would have been a familiar sight when he was younger (as it was for me too)

We look forward to seeing your entries. This TIOT theme runs for the usual two weeks.

Thanks for looking, Chris

    That is a fantastic image Chris. It makes for a very pretty card. It's nice to see a card over a journal page, but then, I am still partial to journal pages. Happy end of May. hugs-Erika
