Today's project is very quick and easy! I don't do a lot of masculine cards, but here's my attempt at a quick birthday notecard for a very cool guy (ha-ha!). It measures 3" x 3" and is on a black base. Dark green paper is BasicGrey's Boxer collection. The Lockhart Electric Fan is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Neenah Natural White cardstock and colored with Copic markers G21, G85, W2 & T1. I stamped the Lockhart "hot stuff" sentiment into the blowing air and accented it with G85, too! May Arts ribbon. Button is tied with Marta Stewart's Baker's Twine that was light green; I darkened it with the Copic G85 marker.
All supplies (except ribbonn) available from Ellen Hutson LLC.
I'll be back tomororw with a surprise (to me!) challenge with some very cool chicks!
Sharon, this looks great! The sentiment made me smile. ;)

This is the ultimate of HOT! I love this. It was a total surprise and I have to say it's the best masculine one I have seen in a while...Thanks for sharing. Hard to make men's cards...

I love the sentiment with the stamp. What a great line! It is the perfect card for your sweetie.

Great idea for a card! I don't have this Lockhart so I guess that means adding it to my wish list! heheheh And... I especially like your choice of card prop! That's an even better idea. Next time I photograph my cards, I'm going to try the crystal bowl option. You're very ingenious!
