I found today's card on Pinterest. I was looking for a sample card using the "Grassy Grove" set. I wanted to keep it simple and quick. Plus I wanted to use some Designer Series Paper (DSP). I found the card here.
The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. This card opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top.
I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Soft Succulent card stock for the layer.
A 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" piece of Evening Evergreen card stock was cut for the layer the trees were cut from.
The trees are die cut using the "Grove" dies.
A piece of DSP from the "New Horizons" 6" x 6" stack was cut just under 3-7/8" x 5-1/8". I glued around the edges of the Evening Evergreen piece and set it on top of the DSP. I got mine a bit off and trimmed it with my scissors. I added Dimensionals behind it and set it on top of the Soft Succulent piece.
The words are from the same "Grassy Grove" set and were stamped on a scrap piece of Evening Evergreen using Versa Mark. Then heat embossed with gold embossing powder. I die cut them using the "Message" dies from the "Many Messages" bundle. There's a lot of fun dies in that set. It's fun because the words are all on one stamp and the dies are all on one piece of metal. So you can cut 20 words at one time. I only cut the one I needed. I was glad those words fit into that space because I really liked the ribbon look. I glued the word piece to a 2-1/16" x 1-1/16" piece of gold foil card stock. Dimensionals were added to the back of it and it was set in place on the front of the card.
I added a few gold "Metallic Pearls" to the front of the card and the card was done.
I want to play with this set some more. There's a LOT of DSP in that stack and there's some fun deers in the die set. This would make a great Father's Day card, Masculine Sympathy card or Masculine get well card. Another versatile set! I think I'll try another card without the DSP for those of you who didn't purchase the "New Horizons" package.
Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop by and see todays' masculine card,
Wanda
