MIM #261

MAKE IT MONDAY

USING FLORALS ON A MASCULINE PROJECT

Betsy is up on MIM this week and she is going to tackle the challenge of incorporating florals on masculine cards.  See her video and beautiful  rustic floral card design HERE. 

I decided on a Thanksgiving card for my brother.

He likes the color orange and always tells me how much he enjoys getting my handmade cards  :-)

My Card ~ 

The leafy orange panel is from a new pad of embossed cardstock purchased at Michael's last week. It was on sale for $5 (regular $19.99) and has the prettiest Fall colors. Okay, I didn't stop at just one ~ loaded 4 of these pads in my cart :-p

Stamps/Dies are from PTI- Peonies On Parade; Fall Elegance

    Just what I've been saying...it all depends on the guy. You've got one that likes orange! (I might have to check my Michaels....)

    Nice masculine colors on this and even with the flowers it doesn't look too feminine. I'm sure you're brother will love this card!

    You know what? so many men I know love the color orange! It was my dad's favorite. I would definitely put orange on his card! Oh and who wouldn't love the gorgeous embossed panel? So glad you got a 'good buy' on that paper pack. Very handsome card. Nope, gotta say it, gorgeous!!!
