I made this card on request from someone who wanted a very masculine Christmas card for their husband. I have never been very good at masculine cards, let alone tried one for Christmas. But I wanted to really swing for the fences and give it a go.
I am happy to say that both she and I love how it turned out! I think that's about as manly of a card I can get
I used a stamp from Flourishes called "Country Time Christmas" and colored it in on Classic White cardstock with Copics. Then I masked out my moon and horizon and sponged in my sky with blue Distress Inks. After removing my masks, I cut my cardstock down to size and fitted it over my background cardstock, I stamped my sentiment from Flourishes "Start of Bethlehem" set and heat embossed that in. I popped my image up on foam popdots for depth and interest (off my background) and added some pearls near my sentiment to complete my card.

I just saw this on Interest, and had to come see who made such a beauty! Your work is outstanding.
