Creativity Abounds Blog Hop
This month we are creating Masculine projects and could’t resist sharing one of the fun cards made on my Facebook Live earlier this week. Its Fathers day on Sunday so I thought it would be fun to make lots of cards for the men in our life this week.
I just had to grab the Rugged Icons Dies – they are such striking designs and I knew they would make wonderful focal points on the cards.
Happy Beard Day!
I made this fun card on a recent Facebook live. You can check out how I made this card HERE
Its a fabulous play on words and it took all my strength not to break out in song while I was making it. Can you guess which one?
The first layer is a lovely striped pattern from the He’s the Man 12″ by 12″ Designer Series Paper set. The colour really sets off the rich ‘auburn’ Cajun Craze Beard in the middle of the card.
The beards have been die cut using scraps of card – Smoky Slate, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso and Cajun Craze.
Its a perfect way to use up lots of neutral scraps of card.
TIP: Add some Adhesive sheet behind the scraps before die cutting so you can easily stick the beards to the card.
The beards have been placed on a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock, which has been ‘splattered’ with a number of coordinating Stampin Blends to create some added interest.
The sentiment has been ‘constructed’ from a Happy Father’s Day sentiment and the ‘Beard’ has been created with the individual letters from the Alphabest Stamp Set. This set is a must have to create bespoke, personalised or quirky sentiments.
Don’t forget you can see exactly how I made this card HERE on my Facebook Live
