Happy Father's Day

Hello and happy Tuesday stamping friends. I am here to share a "Father's Day" card that I have made using one of the Our Daily Bread Designs May Release stamps which is called "Waves on the Sea". For my card I've coordinated some Rustic Cream and Sky Blue card stock with an older My Minds Eye pad called Portobello Road, which is perfect for masculine cards.

If you have not seen the May Release I encourage you to go and check it out. Also ODBD is retiring some of the stamp sets and Backgrounds, so make sure you'll head on over to see what is about to be taken off the shelves. To make this even better, all of the listed stamp sets are a whopping 40% off, so RUN on over and see what is still available.

Hello and happy Wednesday blogging friends!  I am coming to you today with another masculine card. For this card I have used the "The Waves on the Sea" stamp set by Our Daily Bread Designs and I must say, it is perfect for those masculine cards.

Well, this is another masculine and very CAS card from me. I tell ya, it itches in my fingers to add frill and flowers, but I am sure that the male recipient of the card will look at me strange if he gets flowers on a his card.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Tomorrow is the last day of school for us for the next six weeks, and my youngest has been home sick, she missed all the fun end of year activities, but what are you gonna do when they get a summer cold....not much.

Again, thanks for stopping by and I pray that you'll have a blessed day!

Fishers of Men

Hello and happy Saturday stamping friends. I am coming to you real quick to share a simple little card before I have to head out the door to go to a wedding. For my card I have used two of the May release stamps called "Fishing Net BG" and "The Waves on the Sea" by Our Daily Bread Designs. If you have not seen this amazing release yet, I strongly encourage you to do so. They are truly fabulous stamps! Alright, here is what my card looks like

Fishers of Men

Recipe:

Paper: PTI Soft Stone, Aqua Mist, True Black, SU Certainly Celery, DP Basic Grey Majorlaine

Stamps: ODBD Fishing Net BG,  The Waves on the Sea

Ink:. VersaFine Onyx Black, 

Accessories: Spellbinders Labels 28, Spellbinders for ODBD Antique Labels and Borders Dies, Recollections silver half pearls,  charm

See, I've told you it was a simple card. ;D   I know I have said this many times before I struggle making masculine cards, so when I do make a masculine card I try really hard not too over embellish them. I know most of the men I know, don't like frilly and flowers on their cards. :D

I hope I was able to inspire you today and I would like to tank you for stopping by!

Have a blessed weekend!

Hugs,
