Masculine Thinking of you...

I rarely remember to make masculine cards, especially thinking of you type cards, but when I was looking at the Altenew Challenge picture with the darker wood colors and my new Altenew Stamp Set Wild Hibiscus and saw a Bird image that I thought would work perfectly for what I had in mind...

I stamped the bird on watercolor paper and then used my new Altenew mini inks to watercolor with. (I tried showing a video of me doing this, but I sort of failed and didn't realize you had to hold the button to record on instagram, oppps!)  I then diecut the bottom and added the wood paper, where I stamped my sentiment from the Sentiments and Quotes Stamp Set also by Altenew.  I then added some twine around it and left the card as is.  The diecut paper was adhered with foam adhesive to help add dimension.

This card was also based on the 200th Freshly Made Sketches Challenge:

And here is the photo for the Altenew Challenge:

Hope you are having a lovely Sunday!
Happy Crafting!
