From the first time I saw this sentiment, I loved it. Today I combined it with some dsp from the Adventure Bound Designer Series Paper Stack. The combination of these two elements would be enough to make a wonderful card.
As you can see, I did add some Mossy Meadow Chevrons courtesy of the Chevron Border Punch.
My sentiment from Adventure Awaits is stamped with Tuxedo Memento Black Ink. I like the look of a stamped image over a background and the Adventure Bound Designer Series Paper Stack gives me so many wonderful choices.
What occasion do you think would be appropriate to give this card? I would appreciate your input as I am undecided.
The card base is Mossy Meadow and I used a slight Whisper White c.s. mat in order to make the dsp pop. Did I mention that I love this paper?

Mar 23, 2015 | Birthday, Masculine |
I had the best day yesterday creating cards with the Adventure Awaits Designer Series Paper Stack. It all started because I need a birthday card for my brother-in-law.
Usually when I am making masculine cards, I try to keep them pretty simple. This card is no exception. The foundation for my card is the Adventure Awaits dsp stack. Did I mention that I am loving this stuff! All of the dap on my card is from it. Be sure to turn the patterned pieces of dsp over because the backside is usually a plain color.
After cutting a piece of Whisper White c.s. with the Party Pennants Bigz L Die. I randomly stamped the splotch from Gorgeous Grunge in stamped off Early Espresso Ink. In addition, I inked the edges of my pennant with a Sponge Dauber & the Ink.
Guy Greetings is a stamp set that I nearly overlooked. But, I really like some of the images and all of the sentiments so it is a must have for me. After stamping the Wrench image from the set, I followed it with the sentiment right beneath the wrenches. Both are stamped with Early Espresso Ink. Near the bottom of the pennant, I stamped the birthday sentiment from Guy Greetings. The font is ideal for masculine cards.
The pennant is finished with a piece of 1/4" Early Espresso Cotton Ribbon that is stapled to the card with the Handheld Stapler & Mini Staples. The pennant is popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals in order to create some visual interest.
If you need a quick masculine card, consider using both the Adventure Awaits dsp stack & Guy Greetings. I will be showing more of them this week so please stop back.

It's time for some more fun with the Pals Paper Arts. The colors this time are definitely for a spring palette.
I love all of these colors but I have to admit that I struggled using them all together. Then I decided to make my own background paper. And, I am pleased with the result. What do you think?
Using the colors of the challenge, I inked each with a Sponge Dauber and stamped on a piece of angle cut Whisper White card stock.
Sticking with the dots theme, I embossed a piece of Soft Sky card stock, also cut at a slight angle, with the Decorative Dots Embossing Folder.
These 2 layers are then put on the Pink Pirouette card base that is embossed with the Large Polka Dot Embossing Folder.
Pistachio Pudding makes an appearance with a sweet butterfly stamped with Pistachio Pudding Ink on Pistachio Pudding Cardstock which is cut out with a Butterfly Framelit.
The butterfly is placed on a strip of Pistachio Pudding Cardstock that is heat embossed with a sentiment from A Dozen Thoughts.
A few Pearl Basic Jewels add just the right touch to my butterfly!
