Hey everyone, I hope you had a great weekend. Mine was pretty good! I have to tell you that I spent half of the day yesterday trying to create my June Paper Pumpkin kit alternate projects for my blog post. After doing the projects per the instructions, I started planning my additional projects and wasn’t happy with ANYTHING I was doing, so I put them away to work on something else. Does this happen to you too? It is frustrating. After clearing off my workspace, I grabbed the Loyal Leaves stamp set and was instantly inspired. This stamp set screams masculinity, so I have another masculine card for you.

This card turned out so beautiful. I love the simplicity of it.

I stamped the center image first using Soft Suede Ink, then stamped the outside two leaves in Crumb Cake ink. Stamp the sentiment in Soft Suede ink, tie a bit of Linen Thread around and tie a knot. This card design would make a lovely gift set for a friend. You could add different sentiments,  bundle them up, wrap some of the creamy ribbons from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo pack around them, and include a tag for a thoughtful gift. I know we all struggle to have enough cards for the men in our lives.

I will work on a couple more projects using this stamp set for you to see on Thursday, and I might even give my Paper Pumpkin alternative cards another go at it.

See you all Thursday.

Happy Stamping!
