The Male Room - Card with a moving part

Good morning fellow bloggers! It's time for a new challenge at The Male Room, and this week it's to make a card with a moving part. After considering a waterfall card and deciding against it I went for a penny slider card - it's ages since I made one of these.

I thought the football was perfect for one of these cards, even though it is a retired stamp. It's one I've kept as two of my sons are football mad and it's always a good standby for a male card. I didn't want the background to be too busy so eventually decided a stencilled one would be good especially as it uses the hexagon shape the ball is made of. Unfortunately I didn't have such a stencil or die, so I made my own using the Cameo.

Make sure you visit the rest of the DT for some wonderful inspiration.

Supplies used:

Cardstock: Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler,
Inks: Cherry Cobbler, Smoky Slate
Stamp set: Goal (retired)

Dynamic Duos Black Tie Week

The Dynamic duos challenge this week is to use River Rock and Black with a dessert option of brads. As I needed to make a male card I thought this colour combo would suit nicely. I stamped the football randomly on black card with Versamark and then clear embossed them. I added a strip of black dotty ribbon and the sentiment tag stamped in black on river rock card. Although it doesn't show up very well in the photo this was mounted on a card blank made from river rock to co-ordinate. The final touch was a football stamped in black on white, cut out and mounted with a dimensional.

Stamp sets used: Goal, Happiest Birthday Wishes.
