It's time for another challenge at The Male Room. For the next two weeks, we want to see vintage creations that are masculine.
My brother's girlfriend needed a card for a friend who is a farmer. I found this beautiful image at Just Ink Lined called tractor. I'm never sure what is considered vintage, all I know is..... this tractor is old. Old=Vintage That's my thought process and I'm sticking to it!! :oD
The image was colored by my water color and regular colorpencils. After coloring, I sponged the sky with some ink. It couldn't be a farmer's card without some burlap. There is actually a black satin ribbon on the bottom of the image, the black cardstock is just on the sides and top of the image. Thought it would give it more texture with a soft ribbon against the rough burlap.
The inside somewhat matching the outside, with a simple happy birthday sentiment stamped.
Hope to see your vintage creations at The Male Room!
thanks for looking and reading :o)
