Continuing my Masculine swap share this week all of today's cards feature the Mountain Air stamp set seen here & Majestic Mountain dies seen here. My Flowerbug's Team did an incredible job on their swaps; I hope you've been enjoying the ideas.
First is a clever card made by Jacki. She created quite the special camping scene!
Her colors include Evening Evergreen, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso & black with a bit of yellow on the camper.
That adorable camper is from the Tree Lot dies – one of the Sale-a-Bration choices in July & August. See it here. It's free with any $100 Stampin' UP! order. *Remember that our Sale-a-Bration items are while supplies last…..
She masked her mountains and blended on a pretty skyline in blue & purple.
Did you catch the 'curtain' in the camper? That's our Black & White gingham ribbon!! And the hitch is done in Silver foil.

Next is another special card made by Tracey. I really like how she created a smaller scene than we usually do; almost like a picture in a frame. Out of the box thinking!
Her colors are Crumb Cake, Old Olive, Pacific Point & Early Espresso. Stamping the greeting repeatedly on a strip is another unique way to add a greeting but not a separate greeting image.
She colored her stamp with markers to get the blue water on the same stamp as the small trees. She masked the trees and stamped a 2nd time to get more water. So smart!

Next is my card. I wanted to do a 'Triptych' card – this is where you have three separate panels creating a scene.
Details:
- I stamped the mountain & trees images all on one piece of White CS using the Stamparatus. It measured 4 1/2" X 3 1/4" and after stamping they are cut to 1 1/2" wide.
- I used Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent & Gray Granite ink. I stamped the same 'tree' image a second time in Soft Succulent, but I moved the card stock up and over a bit so it wasn't directly above the first set.
- I sponged Evening Evergreen on the bottom and Balmy blue on the top, masking the mountains a bit so they stayed white.
- The large White layer is 5 1/4" X 4" and is textured with the Timber 3D embossing folder.
Here's the Mountain Air stamp set; as you can see it is a scene builder set which is a favorite type of set for me. This one is special because it's a reversible set which means one side features a silhouette and the other side is a detailed image. Fun & versatile!
Cards for men can be hard for some of us to make so I hope you're enjoying the 'manly' cards I'm sharing all this week!
