Tic Tac Toe
Hello everyone,
At Daring Cardmakers, the dare this week is a Fun and Games theme...
You have to make a card that includes some kind of puzzle or game element it could be a crossword or a wordsearch or spot the difference etc. You could come up with something more hands on like maybe a maze puzzle or a flip book
I went with the simple Tic-Tac-Toe...
I decided to incorporate the sentiment in the grid itself...I L U :)

Motorcycle Card Tutorial
Hello everyone,
Today I am here with a tutorial for making a simple and quick Masculine card...
I made this card for a friend recently...
I am using some supplies that scream masculine for me...
Burlap, Corrugated paper which I got from Itsy Bitsy...
The die-cut is from a local store...
Using neutral colours is the safest and simplest way to create a Masculine card...
Start by layering the papers...Don't glue anything yet...
See the advantage of not glueing the layers at the beginning...it gives you the liberty to make changes...
Now that I was satisfied with the look,,.I started attaching everything...
I used Mod-Podge to attach burlap...
I attached the Corrugated cardboard with foam tape...to give room for the wooden gear...
The motorbike was also attached with foam tape...and so was the tiny metal charm...
And this is how the final card looks...
I distressed the metal charm with archival ink...
I hope this tutorial was helpful for you...

Masculine card with neutral colours and transportation theme ->

Using neutral colours is the safest and simplest way to create a Masculine card...
I always start out by laying out everything to see how the final card will look...
At this point, the card looked good...but needed something... I dug through my stash...
