Yes I am late with my Make it Masculine card for November – but better late than never right?
I decided to use Creative Stamping Magazine stamp to create a scene and did some water colouring.
I videoed the process for you to watch. But here are the close ups!
I wrapped the ribbon, added a foiled sentiment and a little label with a thread nest to give some separation from the image.
I then chose a sand layer and a turquoise blue for the base to bring the colours all together.
Love this card – certainly suitable for either gender so it counts as a Make it Masculine card!
One more MIM project to do this month and I will have completed my challenge for the year! Hurrah! Actually although I still don’t enjoy making cards for males (where is the sparkle and pretty stuff?) I haven’t disliked any of the cards I have made – in fact I actually feel pretty proud of the ones I have made! (some might even be within my favourites of the year!)
Still undecided on whether to keep going with the challenge for 2026 – what do you think?
Happy crafting!

Love this peaceful scene – and I think it’s a great idea to keep it up for 2026
Gosh – another comment I missed – thanks so much – I’ve had others comment on the videos to also keep up the make it masculine – so I think it is going to stay for another year!
Excellent!
