You’re Flippin’ Awesome for #fms547

I’ve got a simple Father’s Day card inspired by the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches. I used the die cut images from the He’s the Man Designer Series Paper which resulted in a no-stamping card. If you want to make some quick masculine cards then this will be your go-to DSP. Layer up some paper and die cut images and sentiments and you have a card ready to go.

This card with a bbq theme would be perfect for Father’s Day for Dads who love to cook a snag on the barbie.

The panels of DSP were cut to 3cm x 7.5cm and matte onto Cajun Craze Cardstock 10cm x 8cm.

The background diamond elements from the All That Dies were die cut from Crumb Cake Cardstock and sponged with some Cajun Craze ink. Then I heat embossed them with a couple of layers of Clear Embossing Powder which gave it a rusted look. I pulled the thread from the Woven ribbon to create the texture at the back of the die cut circle.

Follow me on Facebook as I feature the He’s the Man suite this week for lots of inspiration.

Awow Blog Hop – Sketch 101

Hi friends, Welcome to our Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop where on the second Wednesday of each month we share creative inspiration using Stampin’ Up! products. This month we have a sketch challenge – my favourite type to work with.

Awow Blog Hop, Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop Header

Sketches offer a great starting point for a project. Today you will see the different looks you can get with just 1 sketch and I hope you give it a try.

Each week on my Facebook Page, I feature a product and this week it’s the Home & Garden Bundle. So I’ve incorporated it with this layout to create a card for Dad. Great for a birthday card or for Father’s Day this has been combined with the He’s the Man suite from our new Catalogue.

The sentiment was inked in Versamark and Early Espresso and heat embossed with Clear Embossing Powder. I felt that it needed to be a little bit darker so I coloured over the embossing with SU100 Stampin’ Blend which made it stand out. The oval was coloured with some Natural Tones Stampin’ Blends and I added the texture stamp from the Nature’s Harvest stamp set which gave it an old leather look which I loved.

I hope you have enjoyed my take on this sketch and stop by my Facebook Page to see me make it on my Creative Escape FB Live tonight.

Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop – Game On

Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share March Blog Hop. Thank you for stopping by my blog Stamping Flair today. I’m a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator in Melbourne. Our theme today is projects suitable to give the younger men and older men in our lives.

I had chosen the Game On stamp set which was one of my early picks from the 2020 Annual Catalogue which I loved. I paired it with another fabulous suite from this catalogue which is the World of Good suite. This entire suite is retiring and is definitely one which I’ll be holding onto.

I have drawn inspiration from Krista Frattin’s card on the Global Design Project #gdp284.

Global Design Project #284, Case the Designer, World of Good Suite, Game on Stamp set, Stampin' Up!, SU

The set of game cards were heat embossed in White onto one of the World of Good Memories n’ More cards. I coloured in the hearts with the Dark Cinnamon Cider Stampin’ Blend and fussy cut the image.

The rest of the card was built around a variety of the Memories n’ More cards in this set with lots of layering. The distressed edge was achieved by running Paper Snips right along the edge.

By stamping the sentiment on one of the included cards, I was able to achieve a muted tone of Mossy Meadow. Some Brushed Metallic cardstock, together with extra pieces of cards and stickers add some Brass accents to this card.

I hope you have enjoyed this card and been inspired to try out our range of Memories n’ More cards. . They are great for scrapbooking as well as for cardmaking. Currently Stampin’ Up! has a number of items retiring and these are only available while stocks last.

Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop – Let’s Hear it for the Boys

Hi Stampers,

Thank you for stopping by Stamping Flair today to see what I have created for the Ink. Stamp. Share. Blog Hop. It’s all about the boys – from the kids to the grown up boys we are sharing lots of fun filled projects to help you with creating some great masculine themed projects.

Ink Stamp Share Blog Hop, March 2020

I’ve got a card and a coordinating gift tag to share with you today using the Sale-A-Bration, Well Dressed, stamp set. In Australia, for every $90 you spend, you can earn a free product. 

Well Dressed Stamp Set Masculine Makes

The Well Dressed stamp set is ideal for masculine cards and on these projects I combined it with the Country Club Designer Series Paper. I chose a colour palette of Night of Navy, Basic Gray, Call me Clover and Poppy Parade. 

Handmade card with Men's shoes, hat and watch

The Stamparatus was useful in getting those shoes aligned as a border. I used the sentiment from the Label Me Bold stamp set. This has become a favourite stamp set as I really love the reverse stamping of the sentiments. It also has some great texture stamps.

After making this card I thought it would be nice to have a gift tag ready to go as well. So I’m all set for the next male birthday that comes around.
