Cards for Men | Details
Bold colors are easily created using Blending Brushes on a piece of Basic White cardstock then die cut using the star die. I found this die in the Christmas Trimmings Dies but don’t overlook the Stitched Stars Dies HERE for even more options.
Once the stars were colored and die cut I used the Stripes & Splatters Embossing Folders to add texture to them. Layered on a stitched rectangle background and a small border of black allows these colors to pop! Accent that black border with a white heat embossed greeting on black cardstock for an added wow factor!
The Mountain Air Bundle provides the perfect landscapes for masculine cards. A simple color palette and a bolder die cut tree provides a terrific 3D look to this simple card.
Creating a card for a nautical lover? The Sailing Home stamp set + the Smooth Sailing Dies are a perfect way to create cards for all the nautical lovers on your card list. Sticking to a classic nautical color palette I used Real Red and Night of Navy ink to stamp and die cut each anchor.
Cards for Men | Gina’s Samples
When Gina created this card for a friend’s birthday I was speechless! The colors and splatter background were both simple and eye catching! Don’t miss the video where she demonstrates how she created the mountains and water for this card – no stamps necessary!
The Whiskey Business stamp set is perfect for those guy cards! It has that “James Bond” feel to the images that are both realistic and sophisticated. Gina added a layer of vellum over a stamped background that used Versamark ink.
Gina used the same Sailing Home stamp set for the greeting on her sunburst card. The NEW Waves of Ocean Designer Paper will be available tomorrow, March 1, and you’re going to fall in love with the patterns and texture. New Blue Foils in this promotional product suite include three colors that will work well with the designer papers and other projects.
