His&Hers Brainstorming!

Hi all,

I’m so excited to have started another Online Card Class. This time around I am a participating in a class called His & Hers. Generally speaking, I feel that masculine cards are one of the most difficult types of cards to make. Most vendors/suppliers sell products that are totally geared towards feminine interests. I think this class will provide some great insight on creating complementary cards as well as bring my attention to products that can be multi-functional in a masculine card.

For Day 1 we are focusing what types of materials/colors we feel are masculine vs feminine. We were asked to fill out a little chart and share what we felt were feminine vs. masculine themes. I took it one step further by adding punching out some tags using scrap material of patterns and colors I thought represented each individual category.

You Are Special to Me

By Cards

Hi All,

For today’s card I wanted to play with a newer supply in my arsenol. For this project I wanted to use my new Derwent Inktense pencils. These pencils are fantastic! They act like watercolor in that they can be blended and intensified depending on how much ink you layer, but the colors are truly bright and bold as the name suggests. I love using a water brush directly onto the tip of the pencil to gain control of the color and then use it on my project. Another way to use the pencils is to color your project directly, and then use a brush to blend out.

Here is the finished product:

You Are Special To Me

 

Supplies:

Card Base: Hero Hues Notecard

Paper: Neenah Environmental Cardstock Desert Storm

Stamp: Ditto – Double Vision and Hero Arts Sentiments

Inks: Derwent Inktense pencils
