Whew, it is hard to get back on track after being on vacation for two glorious weeks. Your brain just doesn’t want to fully engage, mine is asking for another Bloody Mary with extra olives right now. So here it goes. How many of you scramble for a masculine card as you search through for card stash? I do. When I ordered the Tasteful Touches stamp set, I knew it would be perfect for making a masculine card or two.
I paired the Tasteful Touches stamp set with some wood plank paper from the In Good Taste DSP, Pretty Peacock, and Early Espresso cardstock.Â
To create the two-toned feathers, stamp the feather in the Crumb Cake Ink, then wipe off the ink down the center of the feathers (I used my finger) now ink up the sponge dauber with Pretty Peacock Ink and dab the ink all along the center of the feather gently blending the ink edges together. Huff on the ink, then stamp your image. Stamp the center feather up, then flip the stamp image for the outside two feathers. You can get the full instructions with cardstock dimensions by clicking on the link below. I like to leave the sentiment off of my masculine cards, and then I can add the appropriate one when I know the occasion for the card.
I am looking forward to getting back to a regular posting schedule, so for now, thanks for dropping by today and I will talk with you on Thursday.
Happy Stamping!
