Welcome to the monthly Blog Hop by Let’s Craft Together and thank you for joining us. We are a group of multi-cultural Stampin’ Up!® demonstrators in Australia who have developed a strong friendship though our love of stamping and our admiration of each other’s style of crafting.
The challenge this month is to create a masculine birthday card. I have a lot of birthdays in the family that are celebrated in the last half of the year so this was a perfect theme for me.
I have been wanting to use the Beautiful Gallery 6" x 6" DSP pack more and this seemed like the perfect opportunity. I wanted to make a book fold card, and cut my DSP pieces with this in mind, then sadly couldn't find my A4 Secret Sea cardstock so did a little pivot and created a similar layout on a top opening card. I cut the front panel at 4cm up to the centre fold and then adhered that piece to the base.
The remaining 10.5cm x 10.5cm panel is left as the opening of the card as you can see in this picture. I had wanted to run some linen thread around the card under the sentiment, but unfortunately my linen thread has run off with my Secret Sea cardstock and both are AWOL.
Time to keep hopping around to see what other masculine birthday themed cards the team have come up with this month.
Happy Stamping
Monique
