My Pink Stamper Design Team Day

Hi everyone!

Today is My Pink Stamper Day!! Today's project is for Father's Day or just a man card.  And we used the newest My Pink Stamper stamps--LOVE them all!

Men cards do not come easy to me.  I am much better with pink and bling :)  But here's what I came up with and the details will follow.
  • My Pink Stamper Spectacular Sayings Thinking of You stamp
  • Cricut cut at 3 inches from the Father's Day seasonal cartridge
  • Sizzix argyle folder
  • Twine from the Twinery
  • Signo white pen for accents
I like the way it turned out.  But I know I do so much better with girly cards :)

Now, I think I need to have a small giveaway since I haven't given anything away in while.  I was at Archivers yesterday and picked up a few extra things to giveaway.

Up for grabs is a Sew Easy tool, some really pretty Soiree twine and a bottle of my favorite stickles--Frosted Lace!

Just leave one comment and a way for me to reach you if you win. I'll draw a winner on Friday.  Now make sure to head over to My Pink Stamper and see all the wonderful projects from the design team!  You can also see where you can buy these amazing stamps.

    This card turned out terrific! Really like the embossing. I have a hard time with man cards as well- definitely puts me out of my comfort zone!

    This is a really nice card. I'm so glad to hear that other card makers struggle with "manly" cards. I had a friend ask me to make a birthday card for someone in her office. She reminded me three times that I didn't need to go overboard-simple was fine. I finally said, "I get it. It's for a man. No bling." I actually surprised myself by making a good "manly" card, but I did make the fish scales out of shiny paper. It just needed a little pop to it!
