We're making the theme a little easier this time as our last theme of mixed messages only saw 3 players join us - so this time all we want is for you to ADD TEXTURE to your project. You can do this with embossing - wet or dry, using paste, gesso, textured fabric, wood or even scrunching up some paper - let's get inventively textural....

I used lots of texture in my simple guys card - texture is great on masculine projects where you can't do bows and flowers! I used an embossing folder on kraft and flipped it for the reverse both for colour contrast and I wanted the depressions to show rather than raised lines. I then added some textured hessian ribbon and a stripe of washi in gold over that to tie the colours to my sentiment panel. The sentiment is from My Guy is embossed in gold for more texture, cut with a nestie and mounted with foam tape on the next sized nestie. Hope that gives you lots of ideas!
Link up your creations below - submission deadline is Thursday 29th May, 5.00pm BST (Noon EDT). Have fun!
OK, it's only taken me six months to get myself organised enough to join in but I finally did it! Love the neutrals of your masculine sample Tara. Thanks for the challenge!
