Welcome to my Masculine Merriment Monochromatic Monday! There are those M & M's again! I needed a masculine Christmas card and I saw an image on The Paper Players: PP570 - A Theme Challenge from Jaydee so I put together this quick and easy card.
I'm sure you can see what image inspired me...
My card base is Basic Gray Cardstock (4 1/4" x 11", scored and folded at 5 1/2"). I ran a panel of Smoky Slate cardstock (4 1/8" x 5 3/8") through my embossing machine with the retired Winter Snow EF. I adhered it to the card front with liquid glue.
Then I ran a 3 1/2" x 4 1/4" piece of Peaceful Place Specialty Designer Series Paper through the embossing machine with the same EF but debossed and adhered it to the card front with liquid glue..
The sentiment is from the Words of Cheer Stamp Set and is stamped in Basic Gray, on a scrap of Basic Gray Cardstock and cut with a die from the Tasteful Labels Dies. I adhered that to the card front with Dimensionals.
Three Classic Matte Dots (available in the Jan-June 2022 Mini Catalog) finished the front.
I'm also entering my card at Make the Cards Challenge #43 and The 12 Months of Christmas #84: Optional Twist Anything Goes Christmas.
Thank you for stopping by today and enjoy some M & M's on Monday!
