Happy Father's Day

Hello Sweet 'N Sassy Friends!  Sheri here today with a couple card ideas for Father's Day.  I don't know about you but I tend to struggle when it comes to making masculine themed cards!  These card ideas could easily be changed to any occasion. 

***THIS POST CONTAINS AFFILIATE LINKS AT NO ADDITIONAL COST TO YOU***

When it comes to masculine cards I try to keep them simple (stamp, layer, and embellish).  Here are a few things that I like to incorporate into my design:

• Texture
• Pattern Paper (Distressed, Woodgrain, Monochromatic)
• Recipients Interests
• Embellishments (Twine, Brads, Eyelets)

 

My first card incorporates pattern paper, twine, and brads from my list.  I did a little stamping and created my own background paper with the small "Dad" stamp from the For My Father stamp set.  The "Happy Father's Day" is also from this set.  This could be easily changed to a birthday card by using a birthday sentiment.

My second card features the For My Father and All About You stamps sets.  It show how using lots of pattern paper and a little twine showcases word/sentiment stamps.  I also like to use the scraps to decorate the inside of the card.  Nothing fancy but helps use up those scraps!

Scrap Box Creations

Hello friends!  Cathy here with several cards to share with you.  If you are like me, you probably have a scrap box full of designer paper scraps…why is it so hard to throw those little scraps away?  My scrap box is overflowing, so I decided to dig in and use up some of those scraps for my cards.

Paper scraps were stitched together to make the sun rays behind the farm scene.  Two of the images from Landscape Silhouettes were merged to make the scene.  Some Color Burst powders were used to make the sunny colors behind the scene.  The sentiment from the For My Father stamp set was cut with one of the Decorative Plaques Dies.

For my second card, 3/4" strips were cut from DP scraps to make the herringbone pattern on the background.  The panel was then embossed to give it a quilted look.  Sew Happy Cocoa is back in stock at the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamp Store and I couldn't resist using him for my Sew Thoughtful card.  The sentiment was stamped and cut with one of the Mini Tag Dies.

All of the stamp sets and dies used on these creations are currently available and ready for shipment.

Take some time to check them out along with all of the other favorites that are now back in stock.

Today is the last day to receive a free gift with your $25 purchase before shipping and discounts!

These cards serve as a reminder that God can take all of the pieces of our lives…put them together in just right way and make something beautiful!  Nothing is wasted!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Hugs,

Cathy
