I have used the Deisel Punk set for the main image and background, and the sentiment is from the Think and Wonder set, torn script, a TH embossed sheet and all shading in Vintage Photo and Walnut stain. My 'born to stand out' guy was coloured with Broken China and the shading on the image was done with the nesti die still in place to look like an old photo.
I challenged myself to use the masculine images first and now I just need is some time to use the others - and spare time is something that has been very short lately and might be for the next few weeks, as we are having major kitchen alterations starting next Monday which will also impact on another room, and I'm not the quickest at making decisions, but very good at changing my mind! Lots more packing away to finish before Friday, as I already have my ticket for Harrogate GNP on Saturday - got to get the priorities right!!
Is anyone going - it would be lovely to meet up?

Interesting card, Avril. Fantastic layers and great vintage colours.
Kitchen alterations are not a easy project but when it's ready, I'm sure, you will enjoy it.
Have a great next week!

This is terrific, love the subtle colours and all the clever layering.
Good luck with the kitchen and I'm envious of your visit to the GNP at Harrogate.
Love this Avril. I find masculine cards so difficult - but I love this one, especially the way you've made it look like an old photo. Hope you have fun at Harrogate! Claire x
That's a gorgeous composition.

What a great masculine card, Avril! Love all the vintage layers and of course the AO stamps, which I am so glad you shared! Hugs!
Wonderful masculine card, love the layering and added coloring to the Diesel Punk image. Thanks for supporting the Show Us your AO Art Challenge!
I do lots of masculine cards, I do vintage cards, but very rarely a combination of the two. I like how your card turned out, great image and old looking papers!
Terrific vintage masculine card Avril - love it!
Thanks for sharing with us at Vintage Stamping and good luck!
