Happy Saturday!
This week I hosted the TLC over at Splitcoast Stampers and the challenge was to create some
I wanted to make another card using this technique so here it is.
Very simple CAS design, I think the red is very festive.
I began by masking off my card front with some Post-It Tape. I then placed the Simple Grid stencil onto my card front and taped it down too so it wouldn't move. I applied some DOX inks in reds over the stencil then removed it to reveal the grid pattern.
I set that aside to dry a bit and die-cut the deer head and the leaves with my Cuttlebug.
Back to the grid. Using a fineline black marker, I doodled in the lines, then removed my Post it tape and added the border giving the whole piece a very whimsical look.
I stamped the sentiment from Hero Arts then pop-dotted the deer head over the grid.
I think this would make a great card for a guy.
Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.

So bright and pretty Karen and a great way of making a plaid design, and I love the white deer and foliage which stands out beautifully, and the black lines and sentiment contrast well too. x
Looks great! Jo x
Karen, this is such a fun doodled checkered background :)
What a great masculine card, Karen! Love that doodled plaid background that's perfect for showing off the white die cut!
This is AWESOME! The doodling adds so much to the background. Love how you've made it the star with adding white die-cuts. I agree, perfect masculine Christmas card! xx
