Playing in Paradise #95 - Mr. Masculine

Good morning! Happy Friday, happy weekend :) Before I get to this week's challenge, I want to remind fellow crafters about the open DESIGN TEAM CALL for Scrapbooker's Paradise - you can find all the information you need in this post. 

Nina is our hostess this week, and she's challenging us to make cards with a masculine feel:

Since I'm in Christmas overdrive, I decided to attempt a masculine Christmas card:

Supplies: deer stamp from Cornish Heritage Farms (retired); Versamark; Stampendous Pirate Gold Embossing Powder; Marvy Uchida heat gun; Jillibean Soup letter stickers; papers from Echo Park;

Tonic Edge Distresser

What says 'masculine' to me about this card is the clean basic lines. No fussy layers, no fussy embellishments. I didn't have the right letters left in my brown letter stickers, so I've used a plain marker to colour the grey letters - give them a few minutes to dry before removing them from the carrier sheet, and voila. 

Have you got a masculine card up your crafty sleeve?  Share with us by December 6th for a chance to win a fabulous prize from Scrapbooker's Paradise! Don't forget to check out what the rest of the team has to share with you:
