This weeks ways to use it challenge was - something old and something new. We were to pick at least 3 old challenges and one that we'd never done.
My WT challenges...
WT43 - masculine
WT104 - die cuts
WT176 - to use the negative space of something (I punched out a scallop square and let the background and sentiment show through from behind.)
WT94 - dollar store finds
The scallop shape that I cut with my die cut is a piece of foam that I found at the dollar store and have never used! So that's my new challenge for today!
I inked a texturz plate and then embossed the background to give a cool effect. I also inked directly onto the crumb cake with early espresso.

What a striking masculine card!! I love the colors and your simple but oh so effective design. What a great idea to use foam as one of your die cuts. Love that!!
