It's time for another challenge at The Male Room! For the next 2 weeks we want to see masculine projects that fit the challenge Geometric. Yup, that would be a fancy word for shapes..lol. Get out some of those fancy die-cuts and fancy stamps with lots of shapes.
I thought this sentiment was so true of grandpas, just makes you giggle. I added an eyelet to the banner (I guess you can call it a tag now), so I could add some fiber and burlap thread. The fiber seems "prickly" to me.
I found this rubber stamp over at Crafter's Companion, called Prickly by SWALK. (Even though I just got it about a month ago, I can't find that company on their website anymore.) The image was colored with my water and regular color pencils. I even versa mark some hexagons from the Unity KOM stamp set. Some ribbon and brads were added to finish the card.
Here's the inside. I stamped the cute little hedgehog again and added the prickly fiber inside. I didn't stamp a sentiment inside yet, because I'm trying to decided Father's Day, Grandparents Day or Birthday for the granddads.
thanks for looking and reading :o)
