It’s a new month and we have a new Creatively Simple theme for August! This one is for all the males in our life! I find that making masculine cards is a little harder…so I’m always happy to see sports themed stamps!

MATCH DAY
Unfortunately, the English Match Day stamps are already sold out, but you still can get lots of mileage out of the Dies and the DSP! The net could be for soccer, lacrosse, hockey…and the trophy for any sport! Since Stampin’ Up! just introduced the Football Fan stamp set, I used one of the greetings from it to go with the Match Day Dies and DSP!
I loved the layout I did for last week’s sunflower card, so I used it again today…looks totally different, doesn’t it?

- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Smoky Slate cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 3-1/4 x 4-3/4 piece of A Wonderful Match DSP was added in the center.
- A coordinating 1-1/4 x 4 piece of A Wonderful Match DSP was added across the top.
- The circle from the Match Day Dies was cut from Smoky Slate cardstock and added towards the left side with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The trophy from the Match Day Dies was cut from Gold Foil Paper and added over the circle.
- Time to Celebrate from Football Fan stamp set was stamped with Garden Green Ink on Basic White and cut the end at an angle. It was tucked next to the trophy.
- A trio of gold Adhesive Backed Metallic Gems were added to the background.
