Guest Designer at The Male Room ......

I am thrilled to be The Guest Designer over at The Male Room after my recent win.
Thank you so much.....
The Challenge is Anything goes with the Optional Twist of No Designer Paper.

Here is My Card......

I sprinkled on One Lindy Powder over the rock stencil and sprayed with water...
Removing the stencil quickly to produce the multi coloured rocks.
I used a die cut and added dimension using foam behind it.
The main background has stamping and heat embossing on it and stencilling and white paste.
A couple more die cuts to add dimension and further interest to finish.
I thought the fun sentiment was perfect for my rock stencil masculine card.

I am so looking forward to seeing your creations in The Male Room Challenge gallery.

As I have used Powders and a stencil I will be playing along at The CAS Stencil Challenge  
and because of The Dimension I will also be playing along at The CAS Mix Up Challenge.
Challenges I would love to enter......
CAS Stencil - CAS card using Powdered inks and a stencil
CAS Mix Up - Dimensional Die Cuts - My choice is heat embossing and stencilling 
Stamplorations CAS Challenge - Anything goes this time without the optional colour twist
Watercooler Wednesday - Marsha's Anything Goes Masculine Challenge -
I enjoy playing along at this fun weekly challenge
Take It Make It Challenge - Anything goes so long as there is some stamping

Dare I say "you do get around!" How in the world you've managed to connect this gorgeousness to so many challenges I'll never know, Mable... but you've done it so beautifully, and totally rocked it with the perfect little die cuts - and I do mean PERFECT!
I'm at a loss for these wonderful powdered inks - one day I'll splurge - you girls make them look like so much fun!

Congratulations on the Guest Designer spot for the Male Room, Mac!
This is such a cool card and I love it. The Magical's colors of the stones are so soothing and beautiful. The background heat-embossed scripts and the stenciled paste add so much interest in a subtle way. The layers of delicate die-cuts and the punny sentiment are fantastic! And with all these wonderful elements, the card is kept CAS.

Perfect composition and amazing use of white space - this really appeals to me (and not just because of the meadow flowers!).
