Welcome
Today's card is one I made for a mechanic...
I started with a background I had made using Brushos
The sentiment is a magazine freebie that I copper embossed and trimmed around,
then mounted with foam tape.
The tools were from a Darkroom Door set - Tool Shed I embossed them in copper ep and fussy cuut them and again used foam tape to mount them
The feature panel was mounted over copper metallic paper and then onto dark brown card
The inside was finished with a trimming from the background Panel

I used fall colours
Inspired by the colours and the metal roof of the building
I only used the orange from the range

What a perfect card for the mechanic and I love the brusho background and those copper embossed tools Maxine x.
Those tools look so used; great how you gave them that effect! And nice such a warm-coloured background! Hugs, Gerrina

How very perfect for a mechanic Maxine, I don't think I would have known where to start, I find male cards hard enough as it is.

Maxine, those tools look so real. You've created a great manly card!
I love the gold embossed sentiments as well as the tools to really make the card pop! Thank you for joining us at MMM challenge for using embossing powder
Fun masculine design, Maxine! Love the background colors.
That is a great masculine design for a handyman or handywoman for that matter!
What a great masculine card Maxine! I love the brusho background, reminds me of rust. lol The tools are cool and look rusty some too. I love that look! I also love how realistic these tools look. Hugs, Brenda

That's the perfect stamp to use with the copper powder. Thanks for joining us at Make My Monday. Love Dawn x
Great mans card. So clever!
Those tools look just like some I found in the shed, just about on the point of going rusty. In fact they look so realistic I would be delighted if `I had made them like that.
A perfect card for a mechanic, or any man.
Blessings, Neet xx
