Boys will be boys Day 3

Time goes on and this week the theme is ' Boys will be boys', so this week with a little bit of poetic license my card has guitar, music, boots, - covering something that almost all young males (and some older ones) considering the music side of things.

This is my card

This is what I used:-

Sakura Colouring brush pens
Clear Magic Rock Dude Stamp set
Backing card (6 1/4'' x 12'')
Patterned paper
Glossy Accents
Stazon black ink pad
Pigma Micron black pen
White watercolour paper

This is the process

1  Take the backing card and score at 4 1/2'' , fold to form card.

2  Cut 2 matts one for the front  leaving a  a border round 3 sides of 1/4'', the second 8cm wide and again leave a 1/4'' border on 3 sides.

3  Take the watercolour card the panels and cut into panels one for the front and 2 for the boots and one for the word.

4  Stamp the images on to the panels. I used Black Stazon as I was going to use the Colouring brush pens

5  Once step 4  is completed  I used the Colouring Brush pens to colour all the images (you could use the colouring medium of your choice ).

6 Take the black ink pad and go around all the edges of all the white panels.

7  Put the panels on to the card base.  Take the panels and glossy accents and cover the headphones, guitar,  soles of the boots the circle panels on the side of the boots, and alternate letters of the word.  Make sure the glossy accents is completely dry before going to the next step.

8  To stop the main panel from looking a bit stark I used one of the colouring brush pens and randomly did groups of 3 dots to break the white surface.

9  Use the pen to do faux stitching around all the stamped panels

There you have this weeks card.
