Stampin Artfully: Masculine Card with Envelope

The hardest card for me to make is normally a "man card". Not that you couldn't give this card to a woman, but it would really work for a man. All products Stampin' Up!

This card took about 15 minutes from start to finish, even with making the envelope! I simply swiped Whisper White Craft Ink on the front of the Blueberry Bushel card front, then stamped a tree from Rooted in Nature on top of the craft ink swipe using the matching Blueberry Bushel ink. I love the way the tree image really pops. I stamped the sentiment on Crumb Cake. I used a square framelit from the Stitched Shapes Framelits to cut out the sentiment. Simply line it up on top of the sentiment, cut it out with the die, then line it up again with the bottom of the sentiment and run it through the Big Shot once again using the same die. With the stitched marks in the cardstock, it is quite easy to line it up and get the die to "catch" so you can cut out a perfect rectangle.

I made a stamped envelope out of regular Crumb Cake Cardstock using the Envelope Punch Board. I stamped the envelope using my Stamparatus after the envelope was made. By using this must have tool, I was able to make sure I had perfectly stamped images on the envelope, placed exactly where I wanted them.

You can make this too!
