Soar Confidently - More Vintage Masculine Cards


Last week I shared a Video showing you how I created a card similar to these but using the Hot Air Balloon image. All the images come from the Soar Confidently stamp set and you can find the set in the latest Mini Catalogue.

If you are interested in watching the Video, you can find it HERE

Whenever I receive a new stamp set I like to try and use all the main images as quickly as possible, so decided to repeat my card from last week with the Plane and Air Ship images.


My original card was a CASE from the Mini Catalogue. You can find the card I copied on page 70. 


The front panel strips are actually paper form the Sand & Sea Designer Series Paper pack. I added a little Misty Moonlight ink and then stamped using Soft Suede ink using the Compass and Bird images from the Sailing Home stamp set.


I added a little colour to the images using a Blender Pen and the Misty Moonlight and Bumblebee ink pads


The Clouds were hand-drawn and cut out. I daubed the edges of most of the pieces with Soft Suede ink to add to the Vintage feel.

And ... I used the Father's Day sentiment - I'm all set now for June! :o)

Art Gallery - Birthday Card - Video Tutorial



I am sharing more cards created with the Art Gallery stamp set in today's post and Video Tutorial.

I used all the floral images this time, but no Gilding Flakes - then card would have looked gorgeous with them though!


The main colours used for each card are Gorgeous Grape, Melon Mambo and Daffodil Delight - I just switched them around a little on the second card.


The Whisper White background panel has been embossed using the Painted Texture 3D folder.


The Art Gallery stamp set contains many different sentiments all in a beautiful font. I chose to make a Birthday card for this one.



Here is the Video ...


Measurements

Note: If you use A4 as your standard sheet of card – follow the metric measurements (cms).

Darling Donkeys - Pop Out Panel Card



I have another Darling Donkeys card to share with you today.

This stamp set is one of the FREE items that you can select during our Sale-a-Bration Promotion. This one is available with a spend of £45.

The Balloon images came from the Special Someone stamp set and were cut out using the coordinating Special Day dies.


I love this style of card! It's one of my favourites!

The paper used comes from the Brights 6" Designer Series Paper pack. I used dies from the Tasteful Labels set to cut each of the inside panels.

All the images were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured using the Stampin' Blends alcohol markers. I used a different colour for each of the Donkeys - Soft Suede, Smoky Slate and Crumb Cake.


I added a panel on the back, so you can write your message.

If you are interested in seeing how to create this style of card, you can find a Video HERE.
