Challenge # 63 Transport

Hello, welcome to our weekly challenge blog which aims to help you create cards for the MALE persons, of all ages,  in your life.  We help you to see that making such cards is not a difficult process.  We are pleased,  you enjoyed the CAS challenge chosen by Julie. Sadly, there were some amazing entries which didn't fit the brief of being Clean and Simple, this made it an even more difficult task  but  Julie  has chosen  the Top 3 winners, who are in numerical order.

Becca

Although I've been crafting ever since I discovered how to attach glitter to paper, I just recently started my own blog, The Damsel of Distressed Cards. The amazing, supportive crafty community I've found on the web has been beyond inspiring!  My cards are very eclectic - I love all things vintage and distressed, but also find immense happiness when I come across a great punny stamp set. My favorite way to create cards is by layering and incorporating mixed media. No matter what aesthetic I feel like working in, almost all of my designs will be saturated in color or filled with texture.



Pat K

Hi, my name is Pat K.  Thank you so much for having me as your GD. I love making masculine cards so this is a real treat for me.   I live in a small town on Lake Ontario, Canada, am happily married with a Son & Daughter who have made me the proudest grandmother of 5.   My first venture into paper crafting was scrapbooking but I soon moved on to card making.    My love for colouring started with watercolours but when I discovered Copics I never looked back.   My style is rather eclectic….one day I love CAS and the next I want to dump everything onto a card…depending on the image or the recipient.   I’m constantly inspired by the talented artists I meet every day. Hugs, Pat K.
Challenge # 60
Sailing

Chosen by Joan, our newest Design Team Member, this being her first choice,
