Midweek Throwdown - Shippers' Choice

This week's midweek throwdown on the Stars & Stamps Blog is shippers' choice, and we suggested masculine cards. Perhaps we should have called it "gender neutral" instead. Many OWH card makers have voiced their difficulties with making masculine cards. You'd never know that if you saw all the terrific Fathers' Day cards that came through this shipper's house. I saw awesome masculine cards!

I think this card is appropriate for both men and women so I'm calling it gender neutral.


Now for the "how to" for the card. I have no idea the manufacturer of the patterned paper. Any ideas? American Crafts? The dragonfly punch is McGill. The dots are from my collection of snaps that I rarely remember to use. The stamp is Hero Arts. The blue strip and black punches are Bazzill.

  6. Very nice card Dixie. I like how you used the 3 dragonflies and the way you positioned them really gives the design movement. I may *need* that punch for my every growing collection! :)
