Hey there! Today's cards are the masculine companions of the cards I shared with you yesterday. I needed several graduation cards this year, for both nieces, nephews, and a grandson, so after making the cards for the girls, I pulled out the He's the Man Suite and my new Rays of Light stamp set to go along with more Charming Sentiments!

Just as I did with the feminine cards yesterday, I chose one sheet of He's the Man 12" x 12" Specialty Designer Paper, cut a 5 1/4" x 4" layer, then cut it into two pieces; 2 1/4" x 5 1/4" and 1 3/4" x 5 1/4", then flipped one piece over to use the opposite-but-coordinating side. I adhered the pieces to a 5 3/8" x 4 1/8" Early Espresso layer, then wrapped 15 inches of Sahara Sand twill ribbon (from the same ribbon combo pack I used the Old Olive from yesterday) and tied in a knot. When that was done I then adhered it all to the Sahara Sand card front.

For the focal greeting I inked the Rays of Light stamp with Versamark, then pressed a piece of Basic White on it. I sprinkled the clear, sticky image with Gold Embossing Powder and then heated with my Heat Tool. After letting the embossed image cool a bit I then cut with one of the scalloped circle dies from the Layering Circles Dies. I stamped "woo-hoo!" from Charming Sentiments with Early Espresso ink on Basic White, then cut with the coordinating Sentiment Silhouettes die. I adhered the sentiment to the embossed circle with glue dots, then adhered the circle to the card over the ribbon with dimensionals.

Inside I stamped "CONGRATULATIONS!",  from Charming Sentiments, with Early Espresso ink on  a 3 1/4" x 4 1/4" piece of Basic White. I adhered it to a 3 3/8" x 4 3/8" piece of Early Espresso, then added to the 4" x 5 1/4" piece of He's the Man Specialty paper I had already adhered to a layer of 5 3/8" x 4 1/8" Early Espresso. I adhered all to the inside of the card.

Before closing up the card I stamped one of the screw images from He's All That in each corner.

I coordinated the envelope by adding a layer of He's the Man Specialty Paper to the flap and stamping "woo-hoo!" in the lower left front corner.

Here's the clickable shopping links for today's card:

Hey there! I'm working on more swaps to mail out, so today I played with the Wild & Sweet stamp set, Sending Smiles Bundle, and He's the Man Designer Series Paper to create this card!

Of course I stamped the raccoon image with Early Espresso ink on the Soft Succulent layer before embossing with the Timber 3D embossing folder!

I cut the "Sending" word from the Sending Smiles bundle from both Early Espresso and Basic White card stock before adhering together with a thin line of liquid glue, then adhering to the card front also with liquid glue. I added a 1" x 4" strip of He's the Man Designer Paper to the left side of the card front. Raccoons and camping seem to go together, so this print was perfect!

Inside I stamped a sentiment from Sending Smiles with Early Espresso ink, then added a 1/2" x 3 1/2" strip of the same He's the Man designer paper print to the left side of the Basic White sentiment layer.

Altogether a quick and easy card!

Early Espresso 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [119686]	Early Espresso Classic Stampin' Pad [147114]	Soft Succulent 8 1/2" X 11" Cardstock [155776]

Hey there! Once again it is time for Sunday Swap Day! The theme of the last monthly swap was Masculine, so today I have a group of fun cards to share with you. Masculine cards are probably the hardest to make. One, there aren't as many masculine stamps to be had, and two, it just seems easier to make a girly card, ya know?

First, Jan Rodrian made her swap with the A Good Man stamp set, using a bit of bleach to lighten the guy in the chair before re-coloring with Stampin' Blends alcohol markers.

This card is a bit of a fun-fold!

Next, Jan Farring used the Biggest Wish stamp set with Beauty of the Earth Designer Paper:

Janace Charbonneau also used Biggest Wish, as well as Beauty of Friendship Bundle with Beauty of the Earth Designer Paper, Stitched So Sweetly and Color & Contour Dies:

Barbara Dykhouse used Reflected in Nature with Beauty of the Earth Designer Paper and the Timber 3D embossing Folder.

Deb McCahan also used Reflected In Nature with In Good Taste Designer, Stitched So Sweetly Dies, and the Lovely Label Pick a Punch:

Another fun-fold!

Finally, Jenna Roby used the Intricate Leaves Dies, Timber 3D embossing folder with a sentiment from Peaceful Moments:

Be sure to come back tomorrow for the November Edition of the Stampers Dozen Blog Hop!

Hey there! Today I have another card created with the Hats Off Bundle. I created this one with my husband in mind for Father's Day.

I used a color combo of Sahara Sand and Evening Evergreen, which are the perfect colors for my farmer hubby! I embossed the Evening Evergreen layer with the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder for some background interest. I stamped "DAD" on a separate Sahara Sand scrap and cut it out with the coordinating Hat Builder Die.

Inside I decided to use Sahara Sand for my sentiment layer, stamping "You're The Best" from the Hats Off set with Evening Evergreen ink. I added the mountain/evergreens motif at the bottom with Evening Evergreen ink.

I used the mountains/evergreens again on the envelope flap and front bottom left corner.

This was such a quick but satisfying card to make!

Supplies to order:

Hats Off Bundle [158361] $35.00	Hats Off Photopolymer Stamp Set [155483] $17.00	Hat Builder Dies [155964] $22.00

Hey there! Today I have another masculine birthday card to share. I created this one with the new Soar Confidently stamp set from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. It's a stand-alone set, which means there are no dies or punches to accompany it but I love vintage images, so I had to have it to play with!

After I stamped the bi-plane with black ink I then used a Blending Brush to softly swirl Pool Party ink for the sky.

I was able to leave the area of the greeting ink-free. I added a couple of Gilded Gems  because while sparkly, they also look a bit industrial, or rivet-like.

I embossed the Pool Party layers with the Old World Paper 3D embossing folder to continue the look of clouds.

Inside I used sentiments from Handsomely Suited, another mini catalog stamp set.

Hey there! Today's card was created for my grandson, Lando, who turned 6 this month. We went to his party yesterday, so now I can post his card! I used Ride the Range from the Jan-June 2021 Mini Catalog and a double z-fold.

Lando was pretty happy to receive his card (and the present it was attached to!) lol!

All of the images used on this card are from the Ride the Range stamp set, including the adorable horseshoe I stamped in the background. I hand-cut the top and sides of the "LIFE IS A JOURNEY. . ." greeting, as well as the Early Espresso mat layer behind it.

I used the dies in the Open Range set to cut the cowboy, the cows, the windmill, and the fence I glued to the z-fold arm. I used the barbed wire image behind the windmill and the fence.

The finishing sentiment and hay bales are all from the set!

Dimensions for z-fold card:

Early Espresso base: 4 1/4" x 11", scored at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2"

Early Espresso z-fold arm: 1" x 11", scored at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2"

Soft Suede section layers: 2 1/2" x 4" - need two

Soft Suede inside layer: 4" x 5 1/4"

Very Vanilla inside layer: 3 1/2" x 4 3/4"

Very Vanilla for cowboy, cows, and greeting label: scraps

Early Espresso for greeting label mat: scrap

Tip: for added strength, adhere the ends of the z-fold arm to card with liquid glue.
