A Handcrafted Masculine Card in Green & Gold

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

In this blog post, we’ll explore the creation of a stunning card using the Most Adored Specialty paper and incorporating the captivating “Ink Dragging Technique.” The result is a visually striking combination of Shaded Spruce and Gold, enhanced further by the use of Gold Foil sheets and a touch of sentiment from the “He’s All That” stamp set.

To begin, select the Most Adored Specialty Paper as the canvas for your card. To add depth and dimension, employ the Ink Dragging Technique using Shaded Spruce ink. The gentle strokes of color will create a captivating visual effect, giving the paper an alluring quality.

Next, I introduced the Gold Foil Sheet to complement the rich Shaded Spruce tones. Cut and layer the foil strategically / cutting diagonally allowing it to bring out the luxurious gold accents on the card. For a heartfelt touch, use the “He’s All That” stamp set to heat emboss your sentiment in gold. Once embossed, utilize the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch to give the sentiment a distinctive shape, adding a touch of sophistication to the card.

On The Flip Side:

When you turn over the Most Adored gold pattern it reveals a delightful surprise on the flip side. Against a backdrop of flirty flamingo, white floral hearts bloom, creating a charming contrast. This pretty design adds an element of playfulness to our overall card design. 

For the greeting, I used the “Sending Smiles” stamp set and coordinating Sending dies. Cut out the delicate elements and arrange them onto your card front. To accentuate the design, embellish with silver pearls from the Festive Pearls package. These pearls add a touch of elegance to our card.

Crafting a handmade greeting card is an art form that allows for the expression of creativity and thoughtfulness. By showcasing the allure of the Most Adored Specialty Paper, either card is sure to leave a lasting impression on its recipient.

Thanks for taking time out of your Sunday to check out my cards today.
