Quick cards for Men using paper strips!

I thought paper strips were a perfect way to create cards for men.  So I chose some 1/2" strips of blues and greens and adhered them to a piece of White 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" card stock at an angle.

Add them at an angle, graduating colors as you go if you wish.  Once you're added strips trim off the excess on the edges.  

Next I used the retiring Well Written 'birthday' dies seen here and cut it out of the stripes piece.  I wanted the greeting to reflect the same colors in the background.  So easy!  

I adhered it to the Tasteful Labels die-cut with Multipurpose Glue. I stamped 'Happy' from the coordinating stamp set Well Said seen here and fussy cut it to add to the card.

Next is another card with the exact same colors but totally different.  I adhered 1/2" strips to the edge of a White card base.  I didn't worry about the outer edge until I was done; trimming it off afterwards.  I focused on the left edge being even.

I added a skinny 1/8" strip of Night of Navy to cover up any unevenness on my left edge.  A length of Navy twine wrapped around and into a bow finishes it off. 

The 'you' is from the Well Written dies and the 'make me smile' is rom the Well Said stamp set (heat embossed in White) on a Navy Tailored Tag punch.

  • All About Autumn Accordion Fold card

    Check out this beautiful swap card Karen made with the All About Autumn Designer series paper: 

    Sept Karen All About Autumn Save

    That pretty greeting is from the Autumn Leaves stamp set; the die is from the Timeless Greetings bundle. This beautiful designer paper (All About Autumn seen here) is not currently available. It will be back in later October though. 

    The card front doesn't look at all like it might be a fun fold does it?  But check this out!  

    Sept Karen All About Autumn Save

    It's called an Accordion fold and she cased this card idea from Sue Campfield.  The designer paper on the front is most of the card front; it's adhered to a small layer of card stock though. *You can see the back of the designer paper front on the photo below. 

    She did an awesome job on the inside of the card; so many layers and textures galore!  The texture is from the new Distressed Tile 3D embossing folder seen here.

    First up is a beautiful card made by Jacki featuring the Sending Smiles set seen here and the Sending dies seen here

    Sept Jacki Sending Smiles Save

    I always love to see out of the box colors for the Autumn season. She used Blackberry Bliss, Mossy Meadow and Pumpkin Pie with Crushed Curry.  The background designer paper is the Inked Botanicals from the Annual catalog.  

    What a gorgeous bouquet of flowers she created.  

    Next is Marla's card – she also used the Inked Botanicals designer paper.  She also used the Cottage Wreaths stamp set seen here on her main layer.  

    Sept Jacki Sending Smiles Save

    The colors include Crushed Curry, Lost Lagoon and Calypso Coral – all featured in her designer paper.

    Measurements: 

    • Vanilla card base 7 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", 2 3/4" X 3 3/4" for stamped front panel 
    • Crushed Curry 3" X 5 1/4" plus 3" X 4" for front panel layer & 1" X 5 1/4" inside
    • Designer paper 2 3/4" X 5"

    Ginny made this last card using the Natural Prints set and Nature's Prints dies seen on page 24 of the annual catalog.  

    Sept Ginny Earthen Textures Save

    She cased this card from Mitusu Crafts; she inked her clear blocks directly in our classic inks and stamped directly onto her card stock.  She heat embossed the 'splotches' using Copper embossing powder.  

    There are so many awesome details here – the colors are Cajun Craze, Pretty Peacock and Pebbled Path.  I love the greeting shape – cut by hand I believe.
