Hey there, hope everyone is doing well.
I'm linking up just this 4x6 piece to Sunday Postcard Art's Vessels theme, hosted by Cindy.
Now on to the card. I thought the 4X6 piece would make a great guy card as the focal image. I left off a sentiment for now until I know the recipient as I can go serious or punny with this.
SUPPLY LIST:
White and light blue card stocks
Scrap of Magenta designer paper on back
Technique Junkies Van Gogh's Sailboats stamp
Versafine Clair Paradise Blue ink
Clear embossing powder
Crafters Companion 5x7 Ocean Waves embossing folder
Salty Ocean Distress Oxide ink
Dina Wakley 6x9 Mighty Waves stencil
Water droplet dots
I chose this Splitcoaststampers sketch for my 6X8 layout design.
I did heat embossing (sailboats), dry embossing (the top waves under the sailboats) and stenciling (bottom layer). Also kept it CAS and monochrome.
On back, a scrap of some pretty water-themed designer paper and a leftover strip of stenciling from the front.
And final view.
Thanks for the visit and have a great FriYay!

I like both but when I do a guy card, especially a CAS one, I keep it clean.

I really like this piece. I like the blue; I like the water; I like the ship. Isn't it amazing how sometimes 1 color is so stunning? Hope the physical therapy is going well, and thanks for linking up to TIOT. That's a super old song you chose. Have a great weekend. hugs-Erika

Beautiful card! You incorporated embossing technique very nicely. Thanks for playing at The Male Room challange.
fab card, thanks for joining us at FnF :)
Your 4x6 piece for Sunday Postcard Art's Vessels theme is stunning, and it indeed makes for a perfect focal image on a masculine card! The combination of heat embossing, dry embossing, and stenciling creates wonderful textures, and the monochrome color scheme adds a sophisticated touch. Leaving the sentiment off for now allows for flexibility in tailoring it to the recipient's taste. Great job on this artistic creation!
WOW! Super design, texture, and stencilling, Aimes. A fabulous masculine card. What ever sentiment you add puny or serious will suit this design. Love it. x
