We would like to welcome our Guest Designer for the month of March - Jen Mitchell. Now pop on over to Just Us Girls Challenge Blog and see what Jen and the rest of the Design Team have created for this Masculine Challenge.
I needed another sympathy card for an older gentleman who had lost his son. I pulled this blast from the past out, it's a very old SU set. I stamped it in Memento Espresso Truffle on Core'dinations cardstock and cut the middle out making a frame. Stamped the other ship in the same set, colored the sails with Distress Marker in Picket Fence and a damp paintbrush and colored the bottom with Distress Markers in Pumice Stone and Gathered Twigs. Sponged the edges with more Distress Inks in Walnut Stain and Black Soot. Striped background is from Mel Stampz and added a strip of washi tape.
Now it's your turn to show us your Masculine creations at Just Us Girls. Who knows, you could be our next Chic of the Week, which leads to the possibility of being our next Guest Designer. Please limit your entries to 3.

Sympathy cards are always hard to make, but a masculine sympathy card is a double wammy. Of course, it's no problem for you - this is stunning! Sorry to hear about your friend's son.
You hit a home run with this card Sue! It's really Fabulous!!!!!!!! So sorry you need it for such a sad occasion. Take care!!
I love all the elements on your card, Sue. Very fitting for the occasion.
Fabulous male card but a shame for such a sad reason. Love the layout and all the distressed bits.
What a beautiful card for a sad occasion. I'm sure the recipient will appreciate your thoughtfulness. Thanks for the warm welcome and for having me aboard this month at Just Us Girls!
