A Couple More Masculine Cards

This new stamp set really is SIMPLE!! Thus the name--PLANE & SIMPLE!!!
Above card is made using Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla, and Not Quite Navy cardstock
Images stamped in Black Stazon and water colored a bit using Crumb Cake ink and a blender pen. Sponge the edges, add some ribbon--and you are done! SIMPLE

This card is probably even easier! Cardstock is Basic Gray, Basic Black, and white Naturals.
Images stamped in Basic Black.
Add a little piece of Designer Series Paper (from the neutrals collection) and a couple of brads--and you are done!

Plane & Simple--MASCULINE CARDS

I always struggle with making masculine cards--so this is the perfect set for me!!!! It's called PLANE & SIMPLE and is the Occasions Mini Catalog.

Above card uses: Crumb Cake & Soft Suede cardstock and just Soft Suede ink
The bottom layer (5.25 X 4) that is on top of the card base, was stamped first, then ran through the Big Shot using the SQUARE LATTICE embossing folder

Above cards uses:
Base: River Rock cardstock
Layers: Basic Black, Naturals White (stamped before embossed), Always Artichoke
Images stamped in Basic Gray
