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!

  • Celebratory Sips card kit to go with PDF tutorial option & exclusive video!


    Here's my newest pre-cut card kit to go – featuring the Celebratory Sips designer series paper.  I love that this paper is so unique; something we haven't had before. 

    There are 10 cards in this kit; most are fun fold layouts too.  This paper was super fun to play with.  I love how the cards turned out!  

    The kit includes 1/2 pkg of the Celebratory Sips DSP (6" X 12), a share of both 1/8" gold trim and Low-profile gems.  Plus you get the pdf tutorial free!  It also includes an exclusive video tutorial. 

    This kit will be ailed out at the end of June;  reserve your Celebratory Sips pre-cut card kit to go here.  

    Or choose the PDF tutorial here for $16. 

    I also added two other new kits to my shop too.  You can save on shipping and get more for your $$ when you purchase more than one kit. See them all here. 

    First is the Painted Petals 12 card kit – created with a former Paper Pumpkin kit but jazzed up with extra cards & product. See it here. 

    Next is the Daisy Daydream 12 card kit – also created with a previous Paper Pumpkin kit – I changed up the cards, added 3 extra cards, gems & ribbon added. See it here.

  • Amazing Beautiful Motif dies featured on this simple card


     

    I shared this card on my Live video last week.  It's a simple fun fold that looks extra special due to the dies I used. 

    The Beautiful Motifs is wonderful, mostly because of the extra special dies.  3 of the 5 dies partially cut out and the other 2 do cut out fully (see the pink flower above). 

    This set of dies or bundle will be included in the Suite sale starting today!  Once you buy one item at full price you can get these dies for just $16.50 (if less than the first item). 

    In the photo below you can see how one of the other partially cut dies looks – in the bottom corner inside the card.  What a pretty addition to our cards! 

    The textured Pink strip is the Damask Designs embossing folder seen here.  It's also included in the Suite sale! 

    I created a free project sheet for you; click on the following link to print or download it.  Download Beautiful Motifs easy card

    Below is the video for this card and another special fun fold card; both featuring this awesome bundle.
