Male Birthday Card Solutions

Today, I have a card that will provide male birthday card solutions.  The one question I hear and/or see most often, is the lack of stamps to create male birthday cards.  Well, with the 2019 Occasions Catalogue, there are solutions. One solution is the Classic Garage Suite.  There are many guys and gals out there that really are into hot cars and like everything that goes with them.  And, of course, there is nothing to say about gals having this type of birthday.  However, there is sometimes a lack of stamp sets and papers that depict a guy’s taste.

Recipe

Stamp Sets: Geared Up Garage

Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento

Paper:Whisper White, Tranquil Tide, Galvanized Metallic Paper, Classic Garage 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper

Accessories: Big Shot Cutting Machine, Garage Gears Thinlits Dies, Blends: Real Red Duo, Smoky Slate Light, Classic Garage Metal Elements, Black/Silver 1/4″ Striped Metallic Ribbon, Banner Triple  Punch.

Details

• Stamp the car in Tuxedo Black ink and cut with Garage Gears Thinlits Dies.  Color using Real Red Duo Blends and highlight with Color Lifter.  TIP:I find that die cutting before coloring sometimes prevents having to recolor because the die cuts have slipped and cut into the image.
• Cut out the group of gears from the Galvanized Metallic Paper.  The  gears are attached together, and if you want, you can cut some apart to use in other places on your card, or there are separate gear die cuts to cut even more greats.
• Punch banners with the Banner Triple Punch, using 2 different patterns from the Classic Garage DSP.  Stagger the lengths of the strips.
• Stamp the sentiment on the DSP with Tuxedo Black ink.
• Attach a length of the Black/Silver ribbon to a metal key embellishment and secure with adhesive to the back of the  Tranquil Tide card base.
• Layer the die cut gears, and then the banner strips.  Attach the car with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Secure the key  with a Mini Glue Dot
