It's that time again, the Video Blog Hop team is back to share Masculine creations and inspiration with you this month.
I'm going to say,..... Masculine is my nemesis, flowers and bling are more my thing (oh that rhymes, I'm a poet, haha). I don't know how many times I sat down to create for this and drew a bit fat 100% blank, and then when I did have an idea I couldn't figure out how to incorporate my personal DSP challenge, needless to say this card was a long time in the "creative making" and my sanity was wearing thin.

I don't know how, but suddenly Dude! popped in my head, maybe I was talking to our Husky, Dave - he is a dude (totally has a mind of his own, and does things according to the way of Dave, never a dull moment). My Lined Alphabet Bundle was still sitting on my desk unopened, now I had the perfect reason!
I used a "B - side" of the Animal Expedition Designer Series Paper to fulfil my DSP challenge, and my favourite technique - masking to add the sentiment from Around the Corner, here's a video tutorial of how I completed all the elements for the card.

Fabulous make Sue, I don't have those dies yet, but you make me want them now. I love Huskies our neighbour has one stunning looking fella he is too!!
ReplyDeleteHuskies are cool, but a lot of work.... especially when they have a mind of their own and only want to do something on their terms! My girl Lily (she's pure white) is a gem, a lot calmer than Dave, a really cuddle bunny
DeleteThis looks fabulous Sue, love the colour scheme and those dies :) Great little video too. Lovely watching you work.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kim - double whammy for me, masculine and using DSP - 2 of my "challenging" things to do!
DeleteWhat a cool Dude Card! I love what you have done with those stamps and dies. I am with you Sue, bling is more my thing too! Really enjoyed your video and the effects. I have much to learn. Mandy x
ReplyDeleteThanks Mandy, I'm still learning with videos, and have the challenge of an 11yr old "assisting" with sound effects at times - you learn and pick up other/better ways to do things as you go, just remember it's one step at a time - and sometimes bloopers can be fun, after all we are all human :)
DeleteLove your card - the colours are just perfect! Funny who gave you your inspiration too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Eimear, yes it is strange where we gain inspiration and ideas at times!
DeleteYour card is amazing!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Janneke
