World Traveler …

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I’d like to share with you one of the masculine cards that we made at our Spring Stampin’ Retreat. I got the idea from a couple of cards I found on Pinterest and combined them into this card!

To create the card I used a bit of everything from the “Going Places” product suite.  I started with the Going Places cardstock pack and embossed with the World Traveler Embossing Folder.

Once we embossed the cardstock with the World Traveler … we cut it along the equator line to split the cardstock and have our Going Places Designer Paper show through. The embossed cardstock was popped up to create some fun dimension and really highlight the designer paper.

We sponged area’s on the map and compass along with the inside of our card to age it a bit.

We then stamped our compass with the Going Global stamp set both on the Lost Lagoon and Very Vanilla cardstocks. They were punched out and layered to create even more dimension. We created a focal point by adding the “Antique Brad” into the center.

To complete the card we added our “banner” greeting with the words from the Going Global stamp set and the Banner Punch. It was a big hit at retreat!

I hope your day is blessed with kindness and beauty.

Product Highlights for Today’s Card …

 

I’m Lost Without You …

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Did you enjoy the card swap share yesterday? I will do more of that as our demonstrator group the Star’s swaps. Inspiration comes from many places … swapping, Pinterest, and blogs. I hope you are inspired by the projects I share with you here on my blog.

Today I’d like to share a card with you that I made from a card that I saw on Pinterest. This is also one of the card we make at my last Stamp Camp.

The card features the “Going Global” stamp set and “Going Places” Designer Series paper ….

This is an awesome stamp set for those “Masculine” cards we all want, but can be used for any occasion! My base of the card is Sahara Sand and is one of the colors in the “Going Places” Designer Series Paper.

The compass image is stamped with the StazOn and punched with the 2″ Circle Punch.  My greeting was stamped with StazOn on the White Vellum Cardstock.

I thought we were in need of a bold pop of color so I chose Bermuda Bay, and embossed it with the “World Traveler” Embossing Folder (LOVE IT). Then we sponged just a little color over the embossed area to highlight it just a little more.

Hope you’re inspired by today’s card. Thanks for stopping by.

Have a wonderful day …
