Our theme this month for the Let’s Craft Together Blog Hop is a ‘Theme – Card or Scrapbook page for the Men’, and for this challenge I am using the Tune In Bundle by Stampin’ Up!®.
I have tried to give this card a ‘Retro Feel’, using the Tune In Bundle, which is all about the Retro Television.

I created a fun background for my card with the Nest Essential Dies, change the colours used and it could be for anyone. Rectangles were cut from Basic Gray cardstock and adhered in a stacked pattern to a Basic Black Base.
Smaller Basic White frames overlapping create that retro look. These were made by using 2 smaller rectangles nested one inside the other and run through the Mini Cut and Emboss Machine.
The Glossy Television reminds me of the small white shinny TV my parents had back in the 60’s. To created this effect I filled in the outer section of the stamped image with a Fine-Tip Glue Pen. Let it dry for an hour or two before die cutting it out.
The television antenna was die cut from Silver Foil, which I had adhered Adhesive Sheet to the back before cutting.
The card insert I used off cuts from the Basic Gray rectangles and adhered onto a Real Red strip.
I just love all the ‘POPS’ of red!
