Hello! How about a Spring-y looking man card today!
I had some inky fun with this poppystamps Mountain Hills Plate. I love that you get the ⅛ inch frame that cuts separate with this die! And really, you could use any of the 3 scene parts by themselves too, the middle section – just partial die cut it then trim with the paper trimmer the rest of the way down. 😀
TIP: If you have trouble lining up your panel on the front of your card evenly, just lay down this ⅛ inch frame cut on your A2 card base and eyeball that panel right down inside it! My eyeballs need a lot of help! lol
I die cut it in white heavy cardstock, inked it with distress oxide inks, spattered with a little water (I like to spray a puddle of water in the palm of my left hand, then rub my hands together and clap over the card so the blobs aren’t huge) then adhered the panels to a card base.
The top blue sky is glued directly to the base. The middle panel is adhered with thin mounting squares. The bottom panel is adhered with regular mounting squares.
It’s not quite time for dandelions here but I love putting them on cards! lol Which is crazy because in my mind, I don’t like yellow. I use it but sparingly it seems. lol
I grabbed some old paper punches…I’ve kept all of mine. I used to use them a lot for paper piecing, so fun! I can’t part with my collection! Who am I kidding?! No one would want them anyway! lol oh, back on track. I used a mini flower and mini branch for these dandelions.
The little flowers from this die would work! Flower Meadow Background
Several stems from floral dies would work too! Florals
Then a few little puffy Memory Box clouds in the sky! A beautiful day in the neighborhood! If you live in Alaska. hehe
I love the new poppystamps Birthday Blowout stamp set… fab sentiments, this birthday one, enjoy your day, sending birthday wishes, for a very special someone and SIX MORE! Really nice set!
Something for a guy in your life!
