March 2026 Piccadilli Players Hop

The theme for our hop this quarter is “make it masculine.”

Hello Crafters,

Today’s Hop was with the 2024 Artisan Design Team members, coming together as The Piccadilli Players. This time, we’re playing along with a theme Challenge – is “make it masculine.”
I wanted to create something a little different with a vintage feel.

For this card, I used the Gears and Texture Bundle, which is a fantastic set for masculine projects. To create the background, I started with watercolor paper and blended Summer Splash, Pretty Peacock, Early Espresso, and Pecan Pie for a rich, aged look.

I love how the colours and texture came together to create a masculine card with a unique vintage style.
