Today I am showing some masciline , or suitable for masculine cards.


This is a bookmark I made for my dad, he liked it a lot!!
I used  not always...but as focal image, with some mixed media stamps from Hello Beautiful, Beautiful Elements and Vibes.



Second one is made with background builder seasonal set 1, love these stamps!! So fun to make backgrounds with these!!
The sentiment is a part of Cheers to the holidays sentiment, I just put some tape on the part I did not wanted when inking it up, so I could just use the Cheers part.
The glass is unfortunately not Unity .




Gnomes are also suitable for masculine cards!!!! I love this cute little one with heart!
I made the background with a stencil and duo transfer gel and foiled it.
Gnome one like you is the stamp.




Now this beautiful Mandala stamp, I loved coloring this one, not specific masculine but suitable!!
The stamp is from the kit Unexpected Places.




Last one is also made with the kit Not Always....but and with Age and wine.
That sentiment fitted perfectly.



See you tomorrow for day 3!!
