March SAS - Birthday Masculine Card

$ 2.50

Nature Silhouettes

Good Day!!!!

This was the other card that I made for the "Black and White Challenge" proposed by Donna Henley.  I mentioned about it a few posts ago.

I like the way it turned out.  I just used Stampin' Up! Classic ink in Basic Black and card stock in Basic Black and  Whisper White.

Have a great weekend and see you next week! =^.^=-

Nature Silhouettes

This is another card that I made for my GNO class.  I love this stamp set and haven't used as much as I want to.  So I decided to use it for another masculine card.

I stamped the tree and the deer with Versamark, used black embossing powder, and heated embossed it.  Then, I sponged around the dear to give an impression of sunrising.  Other Stampin' Up! materials that I used: card stock in Really Rust, Basic Black, Summer Sun, and Very Vanilla; Sanded background (stamped with Really Rusty.

Many Cheers!!!

Lovely as a Tree

Happy Tuesday!

This was another card that I created for my last GNO class - again, with the "masculine" look in mind.

I was fearing that Stampin' Up! would retire this set, and I am happy that they did not!  i just love this one and wouldn't know what to do without it! ;-)

I used Lovely as a Tree set to teach a technique that I was suggested by "my girls" (i.e., the ladies who come to my classes).

We used three shades of green markers:Centainly Celery, Garden Green, and Always Artichoke.  We used them to colour direct onto the stamp.  Starting with the lightest colour and progressing to the darkest, we randomly coloured the tree.  Then, we used the Close to Cocoa marker for the trunk and ground. After giving it "the breath of life" (i.e., a huff to re-moisturize the ink), we stamped the tree.

Card stock: Always Artichoke, Close to Cocoa, and Whisper White.  Designer Series Paper" Manchester (retiring).

Hope you enjoy!  ;-)

Wanted and More!

Hello Again!

Another masculine card to inspire you to make your own Father's Day card.

Previously, I posted another card with the same colour schema and horse (Wanted stamp set).  On this card, I used several different Stampin' Up! stamp sets: Wanted, Nature Silhouettes, Best Wishes and More, and Branch Out.  Can you see which one is used where???

Wanted: Horse;  Nature Silhouettes: grass, vegetation and tree;   Branch Out: the leaves on the tree; Best Wishes and More: the saying.

The horse and saying were stamped in Chocolate Chip ink and the rest of the images was stamped on Close to Cocoa.

Happy Father's Day weekend!  Remember to give your old man a big bear hug!

And Mamy Mower III

This is another card I made with Stampin' Up! And Many Mower set.  I like the combination of colour (a new one for me): Always Artichoke and Bravo Burgundy.  I coloured with blender pens and Classic Ink re-inkers.  Designer paper is Manchester.

Note the circles!  I made them using the Circle Scissor Plus.  It is just awesome!!!  So easy to make circles in different sizes!

Hope you had a good week and that your weekend is even better!

Ta-ta for now!  =^.^=

Happiness is a Journey

This is a card that I made in the Fall during Stamp Fest.  This card was designed by Andrea Walford.

The stamp set, Happiness is a Journey is in the dormant list.  It is a simple set, but you can use several techniques to give a complete different feel to the card.

Stampin' Up! Materials: card stock in Kiwi Kiss, Chocolate Chip, Whisper White and Designer Series Paper in Chocolate Chip.

Thanks Andrea!!!  :o)

Good morning, good morning!  I hope you had a relaxing and wonderful weekend!

I will start the week with this card we made at our business meeting a couple of weeks ago.  Donna Henley got as to do this card as our make-and-take for the evening.  I loved the colours!

 We got to use the new Stampin' Up!Circle Scissor Plus.  It is just so much fun!!!  You can cut circles of different sizes with a little adjustment .  It is true it takes a bit of practice to learn how to use it, but as soon as you get the gist, Yahoo!!!!  It so much fun!

Here is the list of materials:  card stock in Basic Black, Whisper White, Mellow Moss, and Really Rusty.  DSP To the Nines Specialty (which is a textured DSP!!! Love it!).  Stamp set: And Many Mower from the mini.

Wishing you a great week, I hope to see you tomorrow!
