Masculine Sailing Home Birthday

Sailing Home Masculine Birthday Card

Isn’t it amazing just how difficult it can be to create a masculine birthday card?  Well, I’m here to help!  Whether they love the sea or not, this Masculine Sailing Home Birthday card is perfect for that special guy in your life. 

First, I like how the three Layering Oval die-cuts highlight the Smooth Sailing lighthouse die. Second,  the Painted Texture 3D embossing folder evokes the feeling of ocean waves. Finally, the Basic Black, Smoky Slate, Silver Foil, and Basic White cardstock combine for an overall masculine look.  This card is not only attractive but also quick and easy.

Hydrangea “For You” Card

Hydrangea For You Card

Hydrangeas are awesome! I remember my Grandmother always having huge, I mean HUGE hydrangea bushes in front of her home. The flowers were purple and blue and absolutely gorgeous. Clearly, my Grandmother could grow anything. Unfortunately, I can’t say the same for me. At least, now I can stamp them to my heart’s content, and in any color I choose. Hopefully, you will create a Hydrangea “For You” card for someone in your life.  Your thoughtfulness will certainly be appreciated.

Art Gallery Happy Birthday

Art Gallery Happy Birthday Card

Who doesn’t love a beautiful birthday card? Well, I certainly do!  I especially love this Art Gallery happy birthday card I created with the new Art Gallery stamp set and die bundle from the new January-June 2021 Mini Catalog from Stampin’ Up!

birthday card using Art Gallery bundle

Over the years, I have developed a very personal card style.  I love layers of various sizes, and lots of them; I also want as much texture and variety to my card’s various layers.  For example, embossing folders, die cuts, sentiments, and embellishments.  Today, I stamped the large flower blossom around the perimeter of my card with Versamark ink. This provided the texture I wanted and made the base layer a little more interesting. I then added a layer of the new Oh So Ombre Designer Series Paper. Which, by the way, you can choose as your Sale-a-bration gift with a $50 purchase. Next comes the stamped image; again, I was able to add a layer with the die-cut blossom.  The final touches are the die-cut sentiment, three pearls, and of course, Wink of Stella to bring the all-important sparkle to the blossom.

I hope you love this card as much as I do. Stick with me, and I know we can make beautiful cards together!

 

Cutting Details:

  • Mossy Meadow cardstock (card base) — 4-1/4 x 11; score and fold at 5-1/2
  • Oh So Ombre Designer Series Paper (1st layer) — 3-3/8 x 4-5/8
  • Basic White cardstock (2nd layer) — 2-7/8 x 4-1/8
  • Basic White cardstock (scraps) — stamp and die-cut flower blossom and stamp and die-cut sentiment
  • Basic White cardstock (inside of card) — 3-3/8 x 4-5/8
  • Oh So Ombre Designer Series Paper (inside of card) — 3/4 x 3-3/8
