Andrea on the Lotstodo Forum is hosting a 4 x 4 swap with a 'man' theme. You had to do one blue, one green and one of choice. Been as I'd just bought a roll of metal from Paper Paradise I thought I'd best make use of it by doing a bit of embossing using molds and stencils. I cut the middles out and put a picture in the brown one and a stamped image in the green one. I used caramel, latte and ginger alcohol inks on the brown one and lettuce and meadow on the green one, added ribbon and a button. I created the background for the blue one by using my roller in the denim adirondack ink, then I put some cloudy blue acrylic on my craft mat and put my roller through that too and transferred it onto the card. I then used a CI image and added a few blue buttons, hope it counts as the image is a statue, looks masculine though!!!!
