Masculine Cards Cards - Sneek Peak

Here is a card for the best, fixer upper dad in the world!! The pocket is opened at the top so a gift card can be added instead of the handmade tools. Inside is blank.

Class is this Saturday, 1:30 p.m. There is still space so let me know if you wish to join us!

I'll post the supply list in my next post!

Thank you for visiting!

Masculine cards - sneak peek

Another masculine card similar to the one I posted previously, except I used a flip fold and it is a gift card. If you are a beginner card maker, there are a few basic supplies you should add to your collection. The first, of course, are the basic all occasion stamps like "Thank you", "Happy Birthday", "With Sympathy", and "Just a Note". Next, keep an eye out for a few basic "all occasion" images or embellishments, like a birthday cake, balloons, flowers and something masculine like this stamp that I found at a garage sale for only a buck!

I decided to go with some silver foiling technique for the rest of the cards. If you are interested in signing up for the class, please contact me here or contact Bill at A Place In Time. I have a couple more sneak peeks to share and the supply list.

Thank you for stopping by.

Masculine Card Class - Sneak Peak

Hi, Everyone! Here is the first sneak peak for next week Saturday's class. That is June 7, 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. at A Place in Time, Kailua. Cost is $23 and I will post the supplies you should bring to class later this week.

I thought for the first card, since it is graduation weekend, it would definitely be a "suit" card and here is what I came up with. The collar of the inside shirt holds the lapels of the jacket closed.

Small brads create the buttons on the shirt.

This card could be used for graduation, wedding, or even birthday.  A little folding here, a little cutting here.  You will be amazed at how quick it is to pull this card together!!

Shoe Box Card swap!

Our Scrapbooking Club started its Shoebox Card Swap again. Here's is a card I made from GFF Sherri's swap:

Isn't she sweet!!!!

Graduation season

Wow, Graduation season has hit our household! I've been busy planning things and organizing the boy's activities.

Here's a quick project. It's a graduation card/envelope.

I think it came out really well!! I saw this design on a card a while ago. I remembered it when I saw my leftover A6 size cards (pictured above). I think I'm going to create more.

The Wheels on the Bus . . .

Go round and round, round and round . . .

A little wooden car.

One day, dear husband asked my help. I had to turn this into a bus.

But it looks like a limo, I told him. 
Of course, I think that hurt his feelings.  After all, he created it.

I hemmed and I hawed.  Looked at it from different angles. Bus, huh???

Still looks like a limo!!?

He was adament, it had to be a bus.

A bus that had no "The Bus" signs on it, too!

Out came the crafting supplies and, I admit, it's not T-H-A-T bad.

Husband was happy with it.

Still looks like a limo though :o)
