Just Inklined To Hop

Good morning lovely peeps!
I hope you having a good bank holiday weekend?
Welcome to the May Just Inklined Blog Hop!


It's my turn to host this month so the funs starts here!
The theme, I have chosen is "One For The Boys"
I know many of us find it difficult to make cards for the
men in our lives so I thought the design team could give you 
a little bit of inspiration!


The image I have used is Throwback Fred
He's such a handsome chap! Joiner be day & party animal by night!
I made the sentiment myself a while back. 
If you're anxious to hop on, please do!
Here is the blog hop order
Dawn (That's me)
So your next stop will be the awesomely talentd Tammy!
Don't forget to leave a comment at every stop as we always have 
a prize or two on offer for someone who leaves us some
love along the way!
If you'd like to read more about my card, scroll down!


Spotlight Designer Badge

Here's a closer look at the handsome & debonaire
Throwback Fred! He's such a fun guy & he's been coloured with
a combination of Promarkers & Flexmarkers
The little hammer & saw are brads, I think they are from Woodware.


Here's a closer look at the sentiment.
The distressed edges were done with a pair of serrated scissors
& sponged with Antique Linen Distress ink
The papers are from First Edition Bo Ho Chic & Papermania.


Here's what I did inside! I like to add a little decoration as
I feel it helps the balance of the card!


I've included the sentiment here for anyone who would like it!
Please don't share but tell your friends where they can pick
it up for themselves!

Thanks for hopping by! I hope you enjoyed your visit!
Now hop on over to see what Tammy has made for you!
Don't forget to leave a little bit of love at each stop!

  29. I'm probably one of the few who loves doing guy cards, Dawn, but I've gotten some new inspiration from this one! I tend to forget about distressed edges and they always look so good on masculine cards. Love the little tool embellies! Fantastic card.
