Sometimes creating a Masculine card can be difficult. But, with the Adventure Awaits dap Stack & Tag Talk Greetings, it just became a whole lot easier!

The brick wall dsp from the Adeventure Awaits dap Stack provides a nice masculine backdrop for my card. Some visual interest is added with a piece of Early Espresso Cardstock that has been embossed with the Honeycomb Textured impressions Embossing Folder.

The sentiment and its background both come from Tag Talk. I stamped the striped image twice with Cajun Craze Ink on Very Vanilla Cardstock. After punching them both out with the Label Bracket Punch, I cut one image horizontally & one vertically to provide the mat for my sentiment.
The sentiment is stamped twice – once with Early Espresso Ink & once with Cajun Craze ink. "Birthday" is sniped from the Cajun Craze sentiment & layered with Stampin' Dimensionals on the Early Espresso sentiment which was also punched out with the Label Bracket Punch.

A simple card for a guy!

Let me start by saying that I am so sorry my post was not live when I thought it would be. Seems that there is a difference between a.m. & p.m. OOPS!

Here's the sketch that the talented Nicole Watt provided for the challenge.

When I first looked at this sketch, I was stymied – 5 little circles….. However, as I was visiting with my friend, the ideas started to flow.One thing led to another and before I knew it, my card was finished! Isn't that the best way to create!

My stamp set of choice is once again Guy Greetings. And, of course, the paper is from the Adventure Bound Designer Series Paper Stack. The brick wall seemed like a nice place to hang my hats!
Each hat was stamped separately on Very Vanilla card stock and punched out with a 3/4" Circle Punch. The edges of the circles are inked with Early Espresso Ink which is also the color ink I used for the sentiment. The punched circles are then layered on a Cajun Craze Patterned Paper Hexagon courtesy of the Hexagon Punch. The hexagons edges are also inked with Early Espresso Ink.

The sentiment was banner cut on one side, edges inked and finished off with 3 Cajun Craze Candy Dots. If you look at the hats stamp, you will notice that that they are close together so I could not just stamp and punch. I masked all but one hat with scotch tape, inked the stamp, removed the scotch tape and stamped my single hat.
