As promised, I'm back for Day 3 of the Waltzingmouse Stamps April Release Previews. Today, we're going back to the masculine themed projects. I'm so excited to show these to you! I made a gift set for Dad. There's a card as well as packaging for a little gift. This features the stamp set Man of the Hour.
This is my favorite card for the entire release. I used different sentiments and combined them in one card to make the entire card. I also used the border stamp from My Kind of Guy to separate the sentiments.
For the gift, I just wrapped it with kraft wrapping paper. Then I tied some twine around it and added the little sentiment over it. I heat embossed the sentiment in white on a piece of charcoal cardstock.
That's it for Day 3! I know that there are a lot of us who have a hard time with masculine cards. I hope this helps a bit and gives you more ideas for your masculine cards. Make sure to head on over to the other DT girls for more inspiration.
Fantastic work, love how you used the sentiments!
ReplyDeleteWow! Doesn't that 'small boys, big men' sentiment get ya right there! I love it tied simply with string on a brown paper package and your collage card is fab, love the colours.
ReplyDeleteOh my word, that looks like a card from the store, Jean!!! It's stamping perfection! Love how it looks with the little dotted border...and the sweet brown paper package wrapped up with string! Awesome navy and kraft combo!
