CCMC357 Guy Greetings

May 28, 2015 By Connie | 9 Comments

Since June is such a big “male” birthday month for us, I used Guy Greetings again on my Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge card for the sketch challenge this week!

And here is my card:

Here are the details:

The base is 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 Smoky Slate, folded in half.
On top is 4 x 5 1/4 layer of Island Indigo.
A 1 x 5 1/4 strip of Stacked with Love DSP is placed across the middle with the 1/8″ Silver Ribbon in the center of it, then adhered to the back.
A 3 3/8 x 3 3/8 square of Smoky Slate is layered on a 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 Basic Black cardstock and adhered in the middle. The greetings from Guy Greetings were placed on top and bottom corners.
The tools were stamped with Island Indigo and punch with the 1 3/4 Circle Punch and placed on top with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Strips of Stacked with Love, Basic Black and Whisper White were cut with flag ends and placed under the circle. Dad was stamped with Tuxedo Black ink.

Make sure to check out the rest of the Challenge Team over on Create with Connie and Mary to see what they did with this sketch and grab your stamps to play along!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 23 years and just had my 22nd Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Lewis Center, Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Westerville, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends. Email me for a current class schedule... I'm adding new classes all the time!

I love this! My dad was a mechanic and taught auto shop at a boarding school for all his working years. I just might have to “lift” this for his Father’s Day card!

I bought this stamp set for that sentiment alone. I love it! And I really like how you added just the word, dad. Simple and to the point!
