January MASCULINE CARD Challenge
HAPPY NEW YEAR! May 2025 hold wonderful things in store for you all.

Valentine's Day is coming up in 6 weeks. How about making a card to mark the day? You must use either the word "Valentine" or "Love" as part of your sentiment. You don't need to use a heart on the card unless you want to. The twist is to use something with a lacy look on the card. It could be a die cut, doilie, stamp, stencil, embossing, patterned paper with a lacy look to it. Use your imagination. If you use actual lace (made of material) you will get an extra entry. I will use Random.org to select a winner of a $5 GC from me.

Here is an example. I used a lacy look in several elements of the card. I used actual lace below the sentiment, lacy look of the leaves and flowers die surrounding the sentiment, and I think the card base looks kind of lacy, too. All in all, I think I managed to keep this card masculine by adding the dark leaves behind the sentiment die.Image



GUIDELINES:
1. ONE card per Cherry permitted.
2. You may combine with ONE other monthly challenge that allows it.
3. Your entry must be a new card never before posted.
4. Your sentiment must include either the word "VALENTINE" or "LOVE". 
5. Something on the card must have a LACY look.
6. The deadline for entries is Midnight, January 31.

Sounds good!

Just FYI... I think this is in the wrong forum. Maybe one of the admins can move it? :)

I thought I was putting this into the January Challenges forum. When I clicked on the January challenges my post came up. What forum is it in?

been extended into January.

ETA: there's a link in the master list that brings you to this post. But the post itself is in the Cherry Blossom forum.
