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!

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. 

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.  

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!

  • Newest 5 sheet wonder with Positive Thoughts


    I knew the Positive Thoughts stamp set would be perfect for a one sheet wonder but it's even better with my 5 Sheet Wonder!  

    What is a 5 sheet wonder?  See the templates above the cards here?  Those are the 5 pre-measured templates you use for the layers on each of the cards.  Absolutely no measuring here; just cut on the printed lines!  My husband and I have created multiple 'wonders' with printed layers to make card making easy.  See them all here.  

    The neutral 'one sheet wonder' template is what you stamp on, creating your own patterned paper.   First you'll print the template on it then flip it over to stamp on. The other 4 templates are colored 'layers' for your cards.  Cut on the printed lines for perfect layers!  

    I'm offering this class locally and as a kit to go or just the pdf tutorial for anyone else who cannot attend.  

    Local class is Tuesday, February 25th at 6 pm. Cost is $20 and includes the 10 cards with envelopes and the pdf tutorial.  RSVP by Feb 23rd. 

    The kit to go includes the printed templates, 10 card bases and assorted ribbons.  It does not include punched greetings or rhinestones. Cost is $20 plus $8.50 for Priority Shipping.  Email me by February 25th at lagreff60@gmail.com to order.  Combine it with my February Fun-fold cards kit to go for discounted shipping. 

    The pdf tutorial is always available at my Tutorial shop here.

  • Pleased as Punch; another fun fold card with optional pocket


    I am loving the spring-like Pleased as Punch designer paper; it's available now while supplies last!  See it here. I highly suspect this paper will run out before the end of March.  I have no inside information but it's happened before and if you really want it; don't wait!  click here to get yours. 

    I knew I wanted to make the focus of this card a square shape so I could add four pieces of the Designer Paper on the front with the greeting on top. So I had to figure out a way for the side to be separate.  I rarely make square cards so this was my compromise.  

    I adhered the side flap to the card base just at the outside edges to form a pocket.  This is for either money or a gift card. 

    Details:

    Measurements:

    • Mango Melody card base – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  I cut up to the score line at 1 1/4" on the outside edge. The extra piece is textured with the Coastal Weave embossing folder.  It measures 7/8" X 4"
    • White – 4" square
    • Balmy Blue 1" X 5"

    If you like this unique designer paper check out my Pleased as Punch Fun Fold card kit to go here.  There are just 4 days left to opt in on it.

  • Power of Hope meets Peacock Foil


    For our February Flowerbug's Team swap we chose to do a swap featuring Sale-a-Bration cards.  They are all fantastic!  Over the top wonderful.  I cannot wait to share them all with you.  

    Here's the one I made using the Power of Hope bundle seen here.  It's one of the free items you receive with purchase during our Sale-a-Bration promotion from now through March 31st; or while supplies last.  I do suspect this will sell out before March is over.  

    I textured the Noble Peacock Foil (seen here) with the Stone embossing folder from this bundle.  Adding texture to this pretty foil brings it over the top! I also added a layer of vellum and a few flags of Peacock foil.  It comes in 6 single-sided sheets of 12 X 12" foil paper. 2 each of 3 colors: Blueberry Bushel, Old Olive, Pretty Peacock.  There are Noble Peacock rhinestones that match this paper perfectly. 

     

    Measurements:

    • White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", White stamped layer  2 1/2" X 3 3/4"
    • Vellum 2 3/4" X 4"
    • Foil paper 2 1/2" X 4 3/4" plus two 3/8" strips
    • Black 4" X 5 1/4"
