Army Pride

Hey Everyone!!

It's Ashley here again! If any of you read my blog on a daily basis than you know that I always seems to struggle with the perfect cards for the males in my family. Its terrible..I can always make the most beautiful blinged out female cards but I think my masculine cards aren't that great.

When Tanvi created these Army stamps I couldn't have been happier. Perfect to show respect for anyone who is/was in the Army AND they also work for little boys cards!! It was also my time for my own personal challenge with Blackleaf and it was to use the colors Black, Red, and Green. Perfect for these stamps!!.


So here is the card I came up with:
(Since Fathers Day will be here before you know it..I wanted it to be for a Father.




You cant tell in the pic but the gun has glossy accents on it to make it look shiny and those brads are perfect to "bling" out a masculine card. Is it even possible to bling out mens cards? Oh well..they needed to go on the card!
Thanks Everyone for letting me share my creation with you!! Check back soon for more creations and new items!!

  1. Ashley, you did a fabulous job with the Army stamps! Your Father's day card is fabulous! But you do know that you can also use these stamps for a girls card right!
