Welcome back

I had some computer problems last week so I am a little late with this post.  Normally I love feminine cards with lots of flowers so this week I will be featuring some masculine cards.  I love how CTMH has a lovely range of papers especially for masculine layouts and cards and In the Seasonal Expressions 2  they have released the Jackson range of papers.  I must admit to really struggling with this paper range as it has brown in it.  I love all colours except I cannot handle brown – a very long story.

But there is enough blue to offset the brown trims in these papers and here are three quick cards I have made with the papers and the Hats Off Hostess stamp set.  

I love the simplicity of this card with a little bow tie from the Stuck on You Puffies embellishments.

The clock on this card has been cut using the Artiste cartridge and I have stamped the clock image with slate and sponged the edges with Whisper.

The hat in this card has been stamped and then fussy cut and placed on the card using the thin foam tape for a bit of dimension.  The little puffie stickers just add the finishing touches.

Materials used:

Cardstock – Colonial White, Barnyard Red

Paper – Jackson

Stamps – Hats Off – Hostess stamp

Inks – Slate, Black, Whisper

Stuck on You Puffies

Cricut Artiste cartridge

These products are still available until the end of this month when the new Annual Inspirations book comes out.  Please visit my website here to purchase any products.

There are some gorgeous new products coming out and this week there is a blog hop for the new Zoe papers which are just beautiful.

Have a good week and Happy Crafting
