#TGIFC352 - Masculine Valentine card

 Hello crafty friends! 

I've got a card to show you that was inspired by TGIF Challenge #352 and features a NEW bundle that will come out on Tuesday, February 1st called "Here Together".


I'll be sure to share more on the NEW bundle next week but until then, here's a sample using the bundle amongst other products as described below.

I wanted to make something masculine to give to my husband just in time for Valentine's Day! I'm already ahead of the game and I'm so glad I got around to it.


Cardmaking Tips

  • The finished dimensions are 4" x 4".
  • Use a piece of Pool Party cardstock that measures 8" x 4" and score at 4" along the length,  as your card base.
  • Use another piece of Pool Party cardstock that measures 3.5" x 3.5" and zip it through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine with the Gingham Embossing Folder.
  •  use a 3-1/4" x 3-1/4" piece of the Simply Marbleous DSP to crumble up and distress the edges. Sponge some Soft Suede ink on all four sides. The DSP can ONLY be earned through our Sale-a-bration promotion.
  • Cut a heart out from the same DSP using the large heart-shaped die from the Give It A Whirl Dies. Adhere the heart to the center of the square DSP piece.
  • Stamp the hands image onto some Basic White cardstock using Soft Suede Ink. The color of the hands are from the NEW Natural Tones Stampin' Blends Pack (SU600, SU700) that are a part of the "Here Together" collection. Use a little Cherry Cobbler marker to color the nails on the hands.
  • Use your Dark Pool Party Stampin' Blend to color the black and white twine from the Playful Pets ribbon combo pack. Wrap it around your large DSP square 3 times and tie with a bow.
  • Stamp "Sure do love you" onto a 1/2" strip of Soft Suede cardstock with Versamark and heat emboss it with White embossing powder.
For the inside of the card, I used the banner shaped die from the Sweet Hearts Die set and heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder. The sentiment and the hearts are from the Sweet Conversations Stamp set. 

All the supplies, minus the Simply Marbleous DSP and the Here Together Collection (coming 2/1/22),  can be found in the following link:  https://s.tamp.in/AAeFlf

The Simply Marbleous DSP can only be earned for FREE after a qualifying order of $50 or more during Sale-a-Bration. Click here for more details.

Thanks so much for joining me this week! Don't hesitate to comment below and let me know your thoughts on this card! I'd love to hear from you.

Until next time...
