Father's Day

This is the card I made for Father's Day.  I just loved it the minute I saw it and knew I had to do it for myself.  The original idea came from Carolyn King.  I modified some things to fit my style a little better.  Enjoy!

Supplies:
Stamp Set(s) - Teeny Tiny Wishes, Clockworks
Card Stock - Midnight Muse, Very Vanilla, Early Espresso
Ink - Midnight Muse, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso
Accessories - Big Shot, Houndstooth Embossing Folder, 1/2" Circle Punch, 3/4" Circle Punch, 1" Circle Punch, 1-1/4" Circle Punch, 1/16" Circle Punch, Metallic Brads, Modern Label Punch, Word Window Punch, Dimensionals, Sponge

Traveling Thank You

I CASEd this card from Kelly Ryan.  I plan on using a version of this for my Stamp-A-Stack this weekend.  I have to modify it some because Not Quite Navy is retiring and Stampin' Up! sold out of the cardstock before I could get my hands on some :(  We will miss you Not Quite Navy.

This is a great masculine card for Father's Day that is coming up or any of those birthdays for the men in our lives.  The only thing that I think needs a little explanation is the ribbon.  I used Ridinghood Red Taffeta ribbon that is retiring.  I put down a strip of Sticky Strip along the card and then worked my way across the card attaching the ribbon, bunching it as I go.  The flag and the three postage stamps are popped up with Dimensionals.  Enjoy!

Supplies:
Stamp Set(s) -
Card Stock - Itty Bitty Banners, Postage Due
Ink - Not Quite Navy, Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake
Accessories - Postage Stamp Punch, Big Shot, Bitty Banner Framelits, Sponge Dauber, Sticky Strip, Ridinghood Red 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon, Dimensionals, Whisper White Baker's Twine

Belated Father's Day Card

I made this card for Father's Day.  I know that I did not get this posted in time but it is an overall good card idea for men.  Yes the card has flowers and ribbon and polka dots, but because of the colors you can pass it off as a masculine card.  Color choice is everything.  I like this card for its simplicity.  Everything is flat on the card except the center of the flower which is popped up with Dimensionals.

Supplies:
Stamp Set(s) - Mixed Bunch
Card Stock - Crumb Cake, Basic Black, and Whisper White
Ink - Basic Black, So Saffron
Accessories - 1/8" Grosgrain Ribbon, Big Shot, Perfect Polka-Dot Embossing Folder, Blossom Punch, 1-1/4" Circle Punch, 1" Circle Punch, Dimesionals, Scallop Border Punch

Father's Day

Here is another great masculine card and a Father's Day card.  I found this cute card on my Stamping Connection that is available just for demonstrators.  There are so many great ideas and so much support available!
This cards is pretty quick and easy.  Using the 1-1/4" Square Punch, I punched out Chocolate Chip and Bashful Blue squares.  The Bashful Blue was run through the Lattice Lace Embossing Folder first.  I attached the sentiment with Demensionals to get it to pop out over the squares.

Supplies:
Stamp Set(s) - All Holidays
Card Stock - Chocolate Chip, Bashful Blue, Whisper White
Ink - Chocolate Chip
Accessories - Dimensionals, Big Shot, Lattice Lace Embossing Folder, 1-1/4" Square Punch

Father's Day Vintage

 As Father's Day is coming up, I am going to show some masculine cards for the next several posts.  Making cards for men can be seemingly difficult; however, it is really just color choice.  This card is one of my favorite color choices for a masculine card, More Mustard and Bravo Burgundy.  The edges are "Vintaged" up by rubbing a bone folder along the edges.

Supplies:
Stamp Set(s) - Medallion, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Card Stock - Bravo Burgundy, More Mustard, Whisper White
Ink - More Mustard, Bravo Burgundy
Accessories - Word Window Punch, Modern Label Punch, Mat Pack, Paper-Piercing Tool, Gold Brads, Bone Folder, Dimensionals
