Lots of amazing Masculine card ideas this week!!


This weekend my Flowerbug's Team met for our monthly gathering and swap.  Our theme was masculine cards and wow, did they get creative. I'll be sharing them all week long!

Note that each of these animals are stamped in just one color.  There's no need to color them in; let the beautiful images be the star!

This first card is made by Kim; she used the Wildlife Wonder stamp set from the 2022 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!  



The unique dies she stamped & layered are from the Diorama dies seen here. 

Her card is a book binding fun fold.  The main card measures 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 4 1/2" & 5 1/2" for the side & front fold.  The designer paper is from the He's the Man DSP on page 134 of the Annual Catalog.  It measures 3/4" X 4" & 4 1/4" X 4".

Next is another simple yet striking card made by Marilyn.  She used the Wild & Sweet stamp set seen here in the Annual Catalog. 

Again, simply stamping the gorgeous detailed image in one color is all you need.  The colors include Early Espresso, Mossy Meadow & Pear Pizzazz with Very Vanilla.  

Other products are the Fern 3D folder, Stylish Shapes, Stitched Rectangles & Picture This dies.  The gems are the Rustic Metallic Adhesive-Backed dots.  

Measurements:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • Fern embossed layer 5 1/4" X 4",
  • Vanilla & Early Espresso die-cuts 4" X 2 5/8"

This next card was made by Paula; she featured TWO new Sale-a-Bration items on her unique card. 

I love that she made the rings of Love designer paper the star by 'framing' it. The 1 3/4" X 3" 'frame' is made with our new 'Deckled Rectangle dies' seen here. This DSP is from the Sale-a-Bration selection called Rings of Love seen here. It's free with any $50 Stampin' Up! order. 

The greetings are from the Amazing Phrasing stamp set; also in the Sale-a-Bration catalog & seen here.  She stamped on the Sahara Sand layer before she textured it with the Timber 3D embossing folder.  The White Frayed ribbon adds a neat detail.

Last but not least is a wonderful card made by Karen.  She is featuring the Stylish Sketches stamp set; a free choice from the current Sale-a-Bration catalog. *see it here

 

Her colors include Cajun Craze with Sahara Sand. I really like the images stamped on the Sahara Sand instead of our usual White or Vanilla.  

That pretty DSP is from the Sale-a-Bration selection called Rings of Love seen here. It's free with any $50 Stampin' Up! order.  The greeting is from the coordinating Ringed with Nature set in the Holiday catalog.  

Measurements are:

  • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • Cajun Craze 5 1/4" X 4" and 4" X 2 1/2"
  • DSP 5" X 3 3/4"
  • Sahara Sand stamped layer 3 1/2" X 2"

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

  • Sweet & Simple Treat pouch with free project sheet & video


    I shared this neat treat pouch on last week’s Live video. It’s super simple and requires a 6″ X 12″ sheet of designer paper.

    I made one before and one during the video. The left pouch above features the Made with Love designer paper. The right one uses the Lovely & Beautiful specialty designer series paper.

    What I like about this is there’s no special measuring; just score on the lines on the template in the project sheet seen below. The belly band makes closure easy and you can decorate the front in any way you’d like. It’s 1 1/4″ X 10 1/2″. Watch the video to see how I form it around the pouch. There’s no need to score it; just bend at the folds leaving a bit of room for sliding it off.

    I used the 1 3/4″ circle punch and the To the Point punch. The greetings are from the Words of Beauty bundle seen here. The little heart punch is retired.

    I created a free project sheet with template for you. Click here to download it or print it.
