A Masculine Card

I thought I would make a masculine card using some of the papers by Paper Temptress.  pms-pt-sc10-cs13-bones-dmb

To do this, I simplified layers and chose an earthy color combo.  Double Duty Chocolate, a sturdy cardstock,  was used for the base of the card.  I stamped the bones onto the Kraft/Brown Bag Cardstock, colored them in with watercolors and then crumpled the cardstock…then smoothed it back out to give it more texture.  This paper held up really well to all that torture!    The main image was stamped onto HQ Watercolor Cotton Paper and then I water colored AROUND the dino…grrrr.  I wanted to give it another layer without over doing it…so I sent with the Heavyweight Clear Vellum…ooh, is that stuff good!  Can’t wait to try a few more projects with it!!

Since the outside was simplified, I thought I’d wow a recipient by decorating the inside…ROAR!  How is that?  Plenty of writing room on the Heavenly White Premium US CS but lots of detail in the paper piercing and boarder that matches the front.
