Good morning and welcome
Fi here today sharing with you a masculine card as well as a 21st guest book.
Like many with boys I find it frustrating that you cannot find many masculine products, not that I mind creating my own, its just handy sometimes to reach for a packet.
It was my sons 21st Sunday, I had to whip myself into gear and create something masculine as my son does not do flowers! I started pulling out the chipboard, embossing powders and micro beads along with any other metal findings and this is what I came up with.
The background paper is a gorgeous cardstock weight metal printed paper from Paper Loft. This worked beautifully with the Scrapmatts chipboard that I have embossed with Tim Holtz aged marine, along with unknown brand of gold & black powders.

I agree Fiona - it's more difficult to find interesting elements and embellies for masculine projects, but you've done a great job with the grungy approach. Thanks for the inspiration.
