Boy oh boy, has this been a tough month trying to put together my masculine card swap for our team meeting tomorrow!! This is what I finally ended up with. The stamp sets I used were Nature Silhouettes, which I got for FREE with my Sale-A-Bration rewards (yippee!) and Sanded, which I finally decided to get after many times first putting it on, then taking it off, my ordering list. The sentiment is from Fresh Cuts. I used Jet Black Staz-On ink on Glossy White card stock. The wolf card was brayered using the Blue Frost retired SU! Kaleidacolor spectrum pad. I got daring on the buck card, using the same colors as the Blue Frost pad (Bashful Blue, Ballet Blue, and Brilliant Blue), but this time brayering on each color individually. I am a frequent visitor to Michelle Zindorg's
blog, and after reading her FAQs on how she creates her brayered materpieces, I thought I'd try it. I was pretty pleased with the results. The moon was sponged with Summer Sun ink while using a mask. The hard part is making sure you don't get the yellow on your fingers, then touch the blue! I did that on my first attempt... oops! Other card stock used was Basic Black, Brilliant Blue and Summer Sun. Four silver brads accent the card. This is a timely swap for me, as my Dad's birthday is on Monday and we're going out to celebrate after my team meeting on Sunday. Shhh... don't tell him, but the buck version of the card is his!! Thanks for visiting, and I hope all is well with you and yours!

Awesome cards! You did a fabulous job on these. I keep putting this set on my order and then taking it off. It may have to go back on now!
