Stampin' Up! Whisky Business Sending You An Old Fashioned Birthday Card

Today's masculine Monday card features a Z fold card with the Whiskey Business stamp set. I again added a glass look to the whiskey decanter just like I did here. I used in good taste DSP along with the stitched rectangles dies. A pretty quick and simple card to make once you had all your images stamped.

Stampin' Up! A Cut Above Shaker Card

For my Masculine Monday card today I have a shaker card using a clear envelope and the A Cut Above stamp set. I have used the "it's your day to relax" so the card can be used as either a birthday or father's day card. In the clear envelope, is the sequins and the ombre paper, everything else is on the outside. 


Pictured with the simple stamping on the envelope


I kept the inside of the card very simple with just a black and white image

Stampin' Up! Whisky Business Cheers to You Card

Today's Masculine Monday card features the Whiskey Business stamp set. I used some old brown paper packaging for the background and stamped the whiskey decanter on it and used the faux silk technique. I added a 1cm thick early espresso frame over the faux silk background to draw attention to the focal image, the decanter and glass. I added a "glass look" to the decanter and glass by colouring them in with stampin' blends and then stamping the image onto window sheets in Staz On. I adhered the window sheet over the coloured in image with the adhesive sheets. I used the "all dressed up dies" for the sentiment and stacked them three layers high for added height. 


I'm trying to decorate my envelopes to match my cards so I stamped the envelope with the whiskey decanter.


Close up which helps show the glass look decanter and glass


Inside card - I used happiest birthday wishes stamp set and used the 'a little bit late" stamp and masked off the portion of the sentiment I didn't want to use

Stampin' Up! Dude You're How Old Birthday Card with Playful Alphabet Dies and Outlined Die Cut Letters

Today's card for Masculine Monday is titled "Dude, you're how old??" I made it for my nephew who will be 23 later this year. I made it in advance as it is a sample for this months techniques class, outlined die cut letters. 

My card uses a lot of retiring products and sadly, many which had already sold out from the Last Chance Product Sale but happy dies is still available (it's the only retiring product I've used that hasn't sold out!) Don't wait to grab anything you want from the Last Chance Product Sale while you can. Products are while stocks last (or until May 3rd!)

I tucked some gears from garage gears under my outlined die cut lettering for added interest and layered all the lettering and die cuts onto The World Of Good DSP. The bumblebee flag banner is from happy dies. 


Inside card - I again used happy dies, garage gears and a grand kid stamp set.

Stampin' Up! Masculine Monday Game On Card CASE

Today's Masculine Monday card is a complete CASE from Carolyn King featuring the stamp set Game On. Game On stamp set is one of the stamps featured on the Last Chance Product Sale. It is a fabulous stamp set that I am going to miss. It's a shame it has taken me almost a year to discover how good it is. Don't miss out on this amazing stamp set for $33.

I stamped the chess pieces in the background and used the masking technique to stamp the checkerboard patterned around the chess pieces. I stamped the playing cards and fussy cut them out (and stuck them over the chess pieces.) The dice are stamped twice, once on the basic white base card (to get the shadow) and again on another piece of basic white cardstock and fussy cut out and overlapped onto the playing cards (after being coloured in with the shaded spruce Stampin' blends). The sentiment is heat embossed in white embossing powder on a strip of basic black cardstock and popped up on stampin' dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Sailing Home Masculine Monday Birthday Card

For today's Masculine Monday card, I have used a retired designer series paper, but the following current products, sailing home stamp set and smooth sailing dies, stitched so sweetly dies and two products on the last chance list, itty bitty birthdays (sadly sold out) and classic label punch. 

Onto my card, like I mentioned, I've used a retired DSP it's come sail away and used a card sketch I've used before for today's card. Featured on these thank you cards. Today's card came together pretty easily and I am loving the stash of male cards I am gathering. I inked all the DSP before I adhered it in place, and raised the die cuts and sentiment up with stampin' dimensionals. I also added in some faux resin dots for bit of added extra embellishments (I'd normally use bling but I didn't feel bling would work on this card!)


Inside card - I decorated it with Happiest of Birthdays, my favourite birthday stamp set and more of the DSP at the base of the card

Stampin' Up! Game On Slider Chocolate Slider Box

This weeks Masculine Monday creation is a chocolate slider box featuring game on stamp set. If you saw my colour creations purple posy post the other week, this is another one I have aimed for teenagers but it would also work older men as well. 

I have used real red ribbon for my belly band around the smoky slate chocolate slider box as it was a lot easier than getting the scores perfect and it matched the slider motion perfectly as well! I heat embossed the chess pieces in clear embossing powder to make them stand out on the smoky slate cardstock. I popped both the chess pieces and the sentiment up on stampin' dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! World of Good Designer Series Paper Sailing Home Birthday Card

This weeks Masculine Monday card features a card made from DSP (designer series paper) and I used the World of Good DSP. I went with a nautical theme for my card based on the compass DSP. 
I created a cloudy sky background with birds in the sky and a boat in the foreground all encased in a lifebuoy type shape to continue on with the nautical theme. 
I added a thin strip of balmy blue cardstock for the happy birthday sentiment from many messages stamp set to rest on so it didn't look like it was floating in thin air.

Stampin' Up! Cardstock No Stampin' Beer Mug Birthday Card

My husband asked me to make a birthday card for a work colleague recently and it is what I am featuring for this weeks Masculine Monday card.
The request was for a card with beer on it. It's a no stamping birthday card and most unusual for me. I used my electric die cutting machine to cut out the beer mug and my computer for the sentiment inside the card.


Inside the card -  the verse I used is very fitting for hubby to write in (as hubby is full of Dad jokes!)
