DT card for Craft-Room Challenge 'Father/male'

Well did you all have a good Halloween?  We don' really celebrate it in our house, but I did cut my son's out a pumpkin to go in our window!  We had some beautiful entries for our last challenge, so come back and join us again for our new challenge 'Father/male'.  Now I have to admit to struggling with this one at first then I remembered I had this fabulous set of stamps from La Pashe in my stash  snd couldn't resist.  Actually I have four sets of these 'Flippin' male stamps ( so called because you get the front and back view) but this one is my favourite.

I hope you like it too




The background papers are stampin up papers, and I have layered them onto black card.  As the papers have a creamy tone I have used cream card to stamp the images and sentiments onto.  The image has been attatched to my new Xcut oval and scalloped oval dies using foam pads to raise it up.  I have edged all the cream card with black ink for a slightly disressed look.

Stamped image.  I have looked and looked at the package but cannot find an actual name for this set of stamps.

I have added buttons from my stash


I LOVE this sentiment, and how true is it!!!!!

Side/inside view

Here is the inside of the card, the back of the image has been stamped on the left and a plain panel has been attatched to the right for writing on.

I will be entering this card into the following challenges

 

thanks for stopping by

Hugs
