This card is definitely for a man - not only the design and the great Visible Image Stamps for men but take a look at the little surprise that's hidden behind the motif.
First I stamped the Men's Collage on a separate piece of paper, inked it with Distress Ink old paper, sponged the edges with Vintage Photo, colored the clock with Distress Ink Refiller Vintage Photo & added Crackle Paint. The car was stamped again on a second piece of paper, colored and cut out.
The background of the card is colored with Old Paper, then I stamped Grunge Polka Dot and the cogs of the Time after Time Set with Vintage Photo. The black edges are made with the back side of the Grunge Flourish - I have to say it again and again, I LOVE this stamp, it's so versatile!
The word Imagine is from the Set Imagine Dream Inspire.
Under the Men's Collage I layered some papers which I stamped with the writing of the Men's Collage Stamp and with the Grunge Polka Dots. The Men's Collage is glued down only on the edges so that you can put a tag into this "pocket". And here's the little surprise:
I have to admit that I don't know where I have the stamp of the woman from. But on the edges you can see again the Grunge Flourish.
Please also take a look at the wonderful stamps in the Visible Image Onlineshop. And hop over to the Visible Image Blog and/or join us in the Visible Image Facebook Group!
