I'm pleased to be guest designer for The Male Room challenge this time. The challenge is a FUN FOLD, with lots of designer inspiration - so check it out, and join us here: themaleroomchallenge
Lets go for a ride in the countryside in a vintage car. I used a wheat coloured textured card for the base. The fun fold is a wiper fold (there are lots of tutorials on youtube, I used one by Therese Calvird). All the decorating can be done before it's assembled which makes it a winner for me. Edges inked, forest trees sanded, the car is diecut from black card and painted with gold metallic watercolour paint. Car and fence are Tim Holtz Bigz dies, the trees are Couture Creations diecuts. Bold sentiment CZ Design. The road is grey card diecut in a curve with lines in white pen.
I thought most males would like this fold to fiddle with. It fits in a C6 envelope and stands up nicely on a shelf. A personal message can be written on the back panel. Unfortunately the colours don't show very well owing to it being winter here with low light.
