Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend. For many this was a short week, I think we need more of these.
I have a CAS masculine card for you today and I played with some products from the annual catalog. Masculine cards are always a struggle for me, and I try to make them often, so I have them on hand when I need them. Here’s my card for today.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Loveliest Tree Bundle along with the Country Woods Designer Series Paper and the Stampin’ Up! Wild Fern Cling Stamp Set for my card today.
I played along with The Paper Players Clean-and-Simple Challenge #725.
My design is from TGIF Sketch Challenge #512.
Mask off a square on a panel of Country Woods DSP using sticky note tape. Using a Blending Brush, add Balmy Blue Ink and a little Granny Apple Green Ink on the bottom.
Adhere the Basic Beige card base together between the 4 1/4″ & 5 1/2″ score lines to make a book fold card. Adhere the 2 panels of Country Woods DSP to the front of the card base using Liquid Glue.
Ink up the tree image from the Stampin’ Up! Loveliest Tree Cling Stamp Set using Granny Apple Green and Pecan Pie Stampin’ Write Markers. Give the stamp a little huff to reactivate the ink and stamp the image on a panel of Basic White. Cut the image out using the Loveliest Tree Dies. Adhere the tree image to the colored area of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Stamp the sentiment from the Loveliest Tree stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink on a panel of Basic Beige. Cut the sentiment out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. Adhere the sentiment below the tree using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a panel of Basic Beige, stamp the sentiment from the Wild Fern stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. Stamp the leaf image from the Loveliest Tree stamp set in Granny Apple Green Ink on the panel. Adhere the Basic Beige panel to a Pecan Pie mat then to the inside of the Basic Beige card base.
Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish the card. Ink up the tree image from the Loveliest Tree stamp set using Granny Apple Green and Pecan Pie Stampin’ Write Markers. Stamp the image on the envelope front. Adhere a panel of Country Woods DSP to the envelope flap.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
