I used the card stock colors of red, blue and silver. The gears were cut from the Gina K. Designs Metallic Silver card stock and used with some Gina K. Designs Red Velvet and some blue of unknown origin.
Besides the dies used I saved some of the little circle digits from the gears and used them as extra embellishment on the card. I also added some light gray card stock inside the card to make for a lighter surface for stamping a sentiment.
Dies used:
Cheery Lynn Designs Just For You Oval B784
Memory Box Deluxe Gear Set Style No. 98962
Memory Box Cross Stitched Border Dies Style No. 99124

I love those gears, very manly, very masculine. Perfect!
Ha ha - "blue of unknown origin". I have lots of "unknown origin" paper, I think we all have. I really love this card. All the die cuts are just fabulous, as are your colors. Great card!!!!!
Super "guy" card Verna. Yes, love using dies. lol
Fun and bright masculine card, Verna. Love those gear dies and the colors you chose for your masculine creation.
When I was stamping, I always had trouble finding stamps to make cards for men; this is a wonderful idea of using the die gears. Men can relate to that instead of a cute little mouse, flowers, or most of the stamps that we normally use. The colors you used were great men colors, too, as opposed to the light peach, pinks, pale yellows or blues that we tend to use.
Love the fun gears Verna! Perfect color choice too!
have a great day:)
This card just screams HAPPY! Love the colours.

What's the Crossover? Love your male card. Always need them!
That is my die cutting machine that I originally got from Cheery Lynn Designs. They now carry similar machines called Little Sister and Big Sister I think.
