Masculine Cards the bane of my llife

Not sure if others also have difficulty making a card for a young male adult, specially if he is your daughter's boyfriend. She asked me to make him a card but of course she had to vet it first before it could go to him. Once again I used a KennyK image which I thought would be perfect for him as he is a C&W music fan.

Thanks for looking

Digital stamping meets Old School Parchment

I haven't made a parchment card in ages, so decided to combine one of my favourite digital stamps (Kenny K of course) with old school parchment work. By old school I mean placing the parchment over the paper pattern with tape and perforating through the parchment and the paper just the way I was first taught, before all the grids became fashionable. I must admit I cheated a bit by printing the image onto the parchment but that is because I don't think my tracing skills would do the image justice. I used Faber Castell Polychromos pencils to colour from the back and front. The cut work border was from an old Pergamano Christmas pattern C18. The snowflake punches are from various punches and dies I have.
I am entering this project in the Kenny K Holiday Chic Sparkle challenge
