A Manly Card for the Manly Man

Here’s a card I first made a few years ago, when this set was brand spankin’ new. I’ve used the layout several times with other stamp sets, I like it so well. To those of you who were in my stamp club when we made this, I apologize…but maybe your life is as chaotic as mine and you’ve completely forgotten it! In that case, enjoy!

All Stampin’ Up! supplies: Totally Tool stamp set
Crumb Cake, Whisper White, and Night of Navy Cardstock
Chocolate Chip Classic Ink; Watercolor Crayons
Plaid DSP from a retired set; 1” and 1 1/4” circle punches; Cutter Kit

This stamp set still makes me grin, and I think I’ve had it for about 4 years. It’s a great manly set, and can be used for all sorts of occasions. The only non-self-explanatory part of this card is probably the distressing. I used the distressing tool on the Cutter Kit to rough up the edges and give it a little texture. Neato, eh?

Now you’re ready to make a card for a man who will appreciate it…and by that I mean save it forever because you took the time to hand craft it!

Sorry this post is so short, but everyone’s been home to keep me company for the last four days, and I’m so far behind I can’t even see today’s to-do list. Hopefully I can get caught up and have time to work on what’s important…keeping you entertained and crafty!
