The Male Room - Ribbon, Make It Masculine

Happy almost Turkey Day!!!  My family is here and I have a full house.  That also means lots of cooking and eating and telling old stories.  Love family time.

It's time for another challenge at The Male Room.  For the next 2 weeks, we want see if you can make ribbon look masculine.


I used an image from Stampin'Up that I got years ago and thought it was SO cute.  It's called For Father.  This card is very simple;  Kraft paper for the base, 15¢ discount paper for the main design paper and a little pop of color with the blue.  The ribbon was strung through some metal hardware.  I did make a mistake, when the kids get wild it happens.  I forgot to lay the ribbon under the corner piece, so I had to cut the ribbon to meet up with the corner and it worked out better (no lump under the paper now).

Here's the inside.

thanks for looking and reading :o)  Happy Thanksgiving !!

I would like to enter my card in the following challenges:


stamps used: SU For Father
paper used: the Paper Studio kraft, Bazzill, discount paper, BoBunny curry dot
dies cuts used: MFT Square Stax 1 & Stax 2
embellishments: SU hodgepodge hardware, Bobbin Ribbon
