Just Add Ink #668 Choose Two

 

Hello there, 

it's time for a new challenge from Just Add Ink. This week Lou has given us a Choose Two challenge. It may prove the perfect source of inspiration for you if it is Father's day soon in your part of the globe, but it's equally as versatile for any type of project. Just Choose Two of the three options and feature them in your project. Here are your choices.

Several male family members have birthdays this time of year so I used my two choices - timber and twine - to make a masculine birthday card.

This combines two of my favourite techniques for masculine cards - dry and heat embossing. I even doubled it up on the timber background, with random smeared white heat embossed patches over the dry embossing. There was more embossing to create a background for my landscape vignette, for which I layered die cut trees, grounding them with some mountains. The twine added that last element of rustic texture.

The Just Add Ink design team have plenty of lovely projects for you so please go check them out and then come back and join in the challenge.

Thanks for visiting,

Kim
