Happy Tuesday! And – Happy First-Day-to-Redeem-Your-Bonus-Days coupons! Whoo-hoo! Time to reap even MORE benefits from all the goodies you picked up in July. AND – we’ve got a NEW Kit and a HUGE SALE on all our kits in the Collection! Check down below for some deets and then…get to cashing in!
You MIGHT want to spend some of your coupons on the Beauty of the Deep bundle, or maybe the Hope You Know stamp set. Those are what I used to make this cool – totally great for a guy! – thank you card! Take a look-see:
I saw this technique – the strips in the circle – on Facebook and it looks like it started with Brian King! So – I’ll give credit where credit is due! 😎
The layout was inspired by the MFT Weekly Sketch Challenge!
I started by embossing a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock in the Cascading Ruffles 3D Embossing Folder. I matted it on a piece of Basic Black and then adhered it to the front of a Gray Granite card base using Black Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a piece of Basic White cardstock, I used Liquid Glue to adhere strips of cardstock and Neutrals 6″ x 6″ DSP. I butted the edges up to each other so that no cardstock showed thru.
From the top down: Coastal Cabana, Pool Party, Coastal Cabana, Boho Blue, Misty Moonlight, Crumb Cake DSP, Gray Granite DSP, Crumb Cake DSP, Gray Granite DSP.
I stamped the little splatters image from Beauty of the Deep on the top of the panel in Pool Party ink.
Using the largest Stylish Shapes circle die, I cut out a circle from the panel.
I adhered the circle to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I used the coral die from the Beauty of the Deep die set to cut out a Basic Black coral and adhered it with some Liquid Glue.
A small Gray Granite Baker’s Twine bow is adhered with a dab of Liquid Glue.
I stamped the Beauty of the Deep sentiment in Tuxedo Black on a piece of Pool Party cardstock and then snipped out each word with my Paper Snips.
I added a few Rustic Metallic Adhesive-backed Dots and the card front was done!
On the inside, I stamped the coral from the Beauty of the Deep set in Tuxedo Black in the corner of a Crumb Cake panel. I stamped the splatters (they’re really bubbles!) all around the coral in Pool Party ink.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to a Basic Black mat and then into the Gray Granite card base and the card was done!
My Basic White Medium Envelope got the Beauty of the Deep coral and bubbles on the front…
…and more of the Gray Granite Neutral 6″ x 6″ DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! So – we all know that masculine cards can be a bit persnickety so…consider Beauty of the Deep as an amazing starting point! The sentiment-only Hope You Know set has so many possible messages – you’re going to want it in your stash. And – not sure what this strips-on-a-circle is called but…I LIKE it a lot, don’t you?! Give it a go!
I hope you like!
