2nd set of my Team’s awesome masculine swap cards

Yesterday I shared 4 of my Flowerbug's Team manly card ideas for our July card swap.  Today I have three more.  I'm so proud of them; it's obvious they really did their best to make incredible swaps.  

Today's first card was made by Candy. She used the Wildlife Wonder stamp set & Grassy Grove bundle seen here.   

July Candy Wildlife Wonder Save

Her colors include Soft Suede & Mossy Meadow.  Here are some tips on how she achieved this amazing card:

  1. Die-cut the tree & grass silhouette from White CS using the Grove dies. Trim to 5" X 3 3/4". 
  2. Stamp the bear on the background White layer (51/4" X 4")
  3. Stamp the grass image on the bottom of the die-cut.  
  4. Use the trio of trees image to stamp all over the 'foiliage' area of the die-cut using Mossy Meadow ink, stamping 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation of ink.  
  5. Use a blending brush to add more green as needed. 
  6. Sponge color to the edges of all layers. 
  7. Distress the edges with the side of your scissors. 
  8. Use a Soft Suede Blends marker to color the trunks.  
  9. Adhere the die-cut over the bear image. Add to the card base. 
  10. Stamp & add the greeting layer. 

Amazing, right?!!  So proud of you Candy!  

 

Next is another incredibly detailed card made by Roxann.  She used the Beauty of Friendship stamp set seen here. 

July Roxann Beauty of Friendship Save

I love her corner details but the layer of vellum that softens her stamped trees background is amazing!  It gives an ethereal or foggy feel to the scene.  She used Mossy Meadow with Early Espresso ink & card stock.  

I love the triple tag detail on her greeting.  I believe that is from the Mini Pocket Envelope dies.  Such a unique & special card. 

 

Lastly for today is a pretty scenic card made by Deloris.  She used the Grassy Grove  bundle seen here.

July Deloris Grassy Grove Save

Her colors include Old Olive, Soft Suede, White and a bit of blue for her sky.  I believe she used Blending Brushes for that soft background.  

Here's what's included in the Grassy Grove bundle.  

GRASSY GROVE BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

There are a lot of die-cuts here; in fact everything on the front is a die-cut!  The ground, trees & deer are all from the Grove dies.  The greeting is from Peaceful Moments and that die is from the All That dies.  

All are incredible cards for the men in our lives and I couldn't be prouder of them!  

Stay tuned for more masculine card ideas tomorrow and all this week!

  • April’s card kit to go

    I chose to use the Well Dressed designer paper for my card kit to go this month.  This paper is full of stylish images and soft florals.

    This month's kit includes 4 unique fun-fold cards but you get two of each!  Plus I added an adorable pre-cut bag filled with mini cards too!  Look!

    I used the Dressed to Impress, Butterfly Gala and Peaceful Moments stamp sets to finish mine.  In the tutorial I give you two examples of each card so you can make either or both.  Add on either stamp set or bundle at a 10% discount!

  • Music From the Heart; in a rainbow of colors!

    I saw a card like this online made by Diane Barnes and had to make it for my friend Becky's workshop a few weeks ago.  She loves color!  It's made with the Music From the Heart stamp set seen here.   It's just $17!

    We stamped the treble clef multiple times and the greeting on a separate piece of White CS.  Then we fussy cut the words apart and colored each one with a Blends marker.  

    The rainbow of sponged colors are done on another piece of card stock measuring 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"; the same size as the finished card.  Our sponge daubers work perfectly here.  It looks pretty messy but you are only seeing a 'peek' of in on the edge so it really doesn't matter much. It's the rainbow of colors you're wanting on the edge.

  • Did you want a Little Ladybug stamp set? Now you can get one; FREE!

    The cute Little Ladybug stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration promotion was very popular; everyone wanted it!  It was free with a $300 order but that was difficult for many people to achieve.
