Every once in a while we have a project that’s too good to only share just once! Today we are revisiting some envelope art created by the super talented Annie… If your dad is anything like mine, he’s happy with a card made of printer paper and a handwritten sentiment…but that doesn’t mean you can’t…
Happy Friday my crafty friends! Father’s Day is around the corner. Let’s make some cards to celebrate the important fathers in our lives. I start off by choosing a few masculine colors from my Basis cardstock collection. By the way, this cardstock is on sale this month at Cutcardstock. Prepare the cardstock into A2-sized note…
Maybe you’ve heard of the most simple formula to create a little container out of one sheet of cardstock? If you haven’t ever used the 2-4-6-8 method, I’d like to share it with you today. It’s quick and easy, simple to mass produce and fun to make all your own with stamping and embellishments! To…
I’ve been playing with gilding flakes this month. After watching many video’s, I decided to take the plunge and make some cards with them. The shiny flakes look great with the bright colors of Basis Card Stock that is on sale this month. Are you ready to try out something new? To get started, you…
So Mother’s Day just ended and we’re moving onto Father’s Day cards and gifts, right? Growing up, my family did not celebrate father’s day or mother’s day. Our parents do so much for us that it wouldn’t seem far-fetched to believe every day is mother’s and father’s day. My parents in particular sacrificed a lot…
Retro graphics on cards bring a fun and carefree feel that I love. I think they work really well for masculine cards too, so for today’s card, I brought in some fun retro-style stamps and dies to pair with Basis Cardstock. Since the stamp I’m using, features a man driving, I used a wavy die to…
Hi friends! We can all use more ideas and inspiration for masculine cards, don’t you think? Since most of them are more earthy toned and geometric, the trick is to do neat stuff with textures. At least that’s my theory, haha! Today I have a Father’s Day card for you that I made using Texture…
Have you ever felt that sympathy card is the hardest type of card to make? It is the toughest type for me. One of my friends’ sister passed away recently, I hope my card could bring him comfort. I thought about using black cardstock initially, but felt that it is too heavy. So I chose…
I don’t know about you but I have a really hard time making a masculine card. I love flowers and want to added them to everything but I don’t think men would appreciate them like women do. So the card I have to share today was fun because of the little critter relaxing but a…
Why does it seem so difficult to create cards for the guys? I hear it often. Guessing it’s because we use so many floral stamps. Florals are one my favorites!! Although, I think selecting the right colors help make a card masculine instead of feminine. I tend to reach for blues and greens for the…
Hello friends! Spring is in the air – (somewhere) right! I love this time of the year we celebrate some special days here in America one of them is Mother’s Day. For my design today I created two lovely Mother’s Day cards for two amazing ladies in my life. I cut two Classic Crest Solar…
Who doesn’t want a card telling them they are Amazing?!? I love cards just because to brighten someone’s day up. I love the look of stamping on cardstock with a darker color so I thought it would be neat to gather all of my flower stamps up. I started with a piece of 6X6 cardstock….
