Papercrafts Gallery Idol 2012 - round 3

Hi everyone! I’m popping in today with my card for Round 3 of the Gallery Idol Competition! Thank you all so much for your votes and wonderful comments! I’m very excited and so very thankful to have made it this far! 

 
Our challenge for this round is to use one product in making both a masculine and feminine card. For my cards I decided to use the same background stamp (the Designer Woodgrain by Hero Arts) but I also wanted to use the same colour combo and a similar design for both of them. Here’s what I came up with:

Monochromatic set

My masculine card is a nautical Father’s Day card. I made this life preserver ring using a white cardstock and some paper string. I also added a white thread to finish it up:

Monochromatic set

For my feminine Thank you card, I used a butterfly that I covered in gold glitter glue. The little leaf stamp comes from the Rose Background stamp by Hero Arts and the sentiment is from Mother's Flowers set by Jane’s Doodles:

Monochromatic set
