  • Last of the Men’s card series today!

    Have you been enjoying my week of 'masculine' cards?  With today's cards I've shared 16 ideas for the men in our lives!  If you haven't seen them all you have a few options.  Click on each of the links below. 

    If you're reading these in an email you're not seeing the entire blog and cannot see the following posts.  Be sure to click on the heading of this post to get to my actual blog and scroll backwards.  These swaps have been so special & incredibly creative!!

    The first card today is made by Ginny.  She used our new Masking Paper to create the neat background stripes!

    July ginny He's the Man Save

    Her colors are Soft Succulent, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso & Calypso Coral.  She used the 'He's All That' bundle seen here for her stamps & dies.  I love how she die-cut the neat detail dies from her sponged paper!  

    ~~~

    This next striking card was made by Marla.  She used the new Ringed with Nature bundle seen here.  It's in our new Holiday catalog and comes with a Tree Rings embossing folder. 

    July Marla Ringed with Nature Save

    I absolutely love that she used a pop of Poppy Parade cards tock here.  We tend to use muted colors for guys, but many of them love color like women tend to.  

    Her colors include Poppy Parade, Soft Suede, Mint Macaron & White.  I wish you could feel the texture she achieved on her stamped tree ring! And aren't those mushrooms adorable?!

    Next is a super layered card made by Brenda using the He's the Man suite.  See it all here online.  

    July Brenda He's the Man Save

    Her card was inspired by Brian King; her colors by the camping themed sheet in the He's the Man DSP.  She has Early Espresso, Soft Succulent, Crumb Cake & White on her card.  

    I certainly hope you've been inspired by the 16 manly cards I've shared with you this week. My Flowerbug's Team is SUPER talented!  

    Remember if you'd like to be a part of my Team you can choose to purchase the Starter Kit which is always a great deal!  Our group is growing; we have people from across the country and would love to have you join us.  

    It's a $99 order and you can choose $125 in products of your choice.  Then you get a 20% discount on all of your Stampin' Up! purchases and can take part in my Team swaps, challenges, online groups & more!  Of course it's all optional; many of my Team members are simply savvy shoppers; enjoying the discount but not holding classes or actively selling.  You can do it YOUR way!

  • 3 remarkable card ideas with the Mountain Air bundle

    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! 

    July Jacki Tree Lot dies Save

    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…..

    TREE LOT DIES Save

    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!  

    July Tracey Mountain Air Save

    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.  

    Mountain Air Triptych swap Save

    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!

  • 3rd set of WOW Masculine swap cards by my Team!

    I have another set of incredible swap cards made by my Flowerbug's Team.  Our theme in July was masculine cards and the cards are out of this world creative!  I'm sharing a bunch each day this week. 

    First up is a card made by Candace.  She really went outside the box with her background strip idea.  The various widths & lengths of strips are a clever & unique way to set up her aquatic scene.  

    July Candace whale Save
    She used the 'Whale Done' stamp set and the coordinating Whale punch.  That neat 'seaweed' is from the Delicate Edges dies seen here.  

    Her colors are unique but sure work well together!  They are Soft Sea Foam, Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent & Orchid Oasis.  Great job!!

     

    Next is Becky's fun 'sailboat' card.  She used the Let's Set Sail Bundle seen here.  

    July Becky Let's Set Sail Save

    Her colors are Night of Navy, Parakeet Party & Sahara Sand.  The DSP is from the Sun Prints.  It's a fancy fold too!  

    July Becky Lets set sail Save

    Notice her clouds on the background?  She used the Friends are Like Seashells stamps for those!  So clever! 

    Measurements:

    • The card base is 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2". 
    • The long strip is 1 1/2" X 11" scored at 2 3/4", 5 1/2" & 8 1/4" and is adhered only at the two end pieces.  
    • The squares are 1 3/4" & 2" in size.  

    Next is a wonderful card made by Monica.  She used the Dragonfly Garden stamp set & coordinating Dragonflies punch.

    July Monica dragonfly Save

    Details:

    • Her colors include Soft Suede, Soft Succulent & Evening Evergreen.  She textured the various strips using the new Painted Posies 3D embossing folder. 
    • The strips are all 4 3/4" long but vary in width from 5/8" – 1 1/4" all adhered to a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of White CS.  Again, strips to the rescue for a unique background idea; perfect for men.  
    • The greeting die-cuts are from the Stitched Rectangle dies. 
    • The dragonfly is stamped on Vellum and punched out. But she stamped it again on a piece of the Texture Chic specialty DSP for the center.  So it has gold details on it! 

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