This card is for a friend of ours. It’s so hard for me (and others, from what I hear) to make cards for guys. But, this is what I came up with, and I’m pleased enough with it.
The image is by Impression Obsession. I stamped it with Versafine Vintage Sepia ink and colored it with Stampin’ Up! chalks. I misted it with a mini mister filled with water with a little bit of gold Perfect Pearls mixed in, but I could not get that to show up in a photo. I matted it with a kraft cardstock which I punched with an EK Success border punch. The background layer is a shimmery off-white paper embossed with a Cuttlebug Fleur-de-lis folder matted on a dark brown. The card base is Very Vanilla. The sentiment is from a Verve set and is also stamped with the Vintage Sepia.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you’ll come back and visit again soon!

Wonderful card for the guys! I love lighthouses.
Perfect card for a man! I love lighthouses and have a few lighthouse images. Using them makes making a masculine card so much easier. Love the punch that you used too. Awesome Lynette.
