Anyone else have a challenge with making masculine cards? I also do and with lots of males in the family…I certainly need them often. Today I have a fun Camaro design to share with you but I also have a fun giveaway too. I know, I know. I just had a giveaway. And I was going to wait. BUT….then I thought…someone could be using this great stamps and they would be great for Father’s Day and fun summer designs and I thought hey…why not? So it you want some fun GM stamps…keep reading.

Camaro

This card was so much fun to make. The hardest part was waiting for the Glossy Accents to dry!I first watercolored the image and really wanted to make the Camaro word pop. I thought I’d give the Glossy Accents a whirl and was pretty tickled with the slick look. The Camaro Collage is a new release from CHF.

Quick Tip: Dimensional Glaze is a great product to have on hand. You can adhere things with it, and obviously…make glossy accents with it. Glossy Accents, Crystal Effects and Diamond Glaze are all similar products. Make sure you wait until they are really dry before handling.

Supply List:

Stamps: Camaro Collage (GM line) by Cornish Heritage Farms
Ink: Black Stazon by Tsukineko, Pool, Oregano, Cranberry, Espresso Adirondack Inks by Ranger
Paper: black, olive & teal cardstock by Bazzil, journaling spot by Jenni Bowlin
Other: waterbrush by Niji, glossy Accents by Ranger, big brad
