Stampin Up had this cute stamp set that would be great for all your masculine friends.  It’s always hard to find a card for a male that isn’t all flowery and feminine.  I thought this set did just what I was looking for.

I made two cards so far from this set.

For the first one I stamped the light brown paper with the mug and then torn the edges.  I then stamped the mug and added dimensionals on the back to pop it up.

For the inside I used the same sentiment on both cards for the inside.

The second card has different size pieces of scrapbook paper layered and I mounted one of the glass mugs on dimensionals and left one of them flat.

Some of Stampin Up’s stamps are very detailed and make such a beautiful design.  This card is one of their new stamp sets called Wonderful World.

I stamped the flower with gorgeous grape ink and for the leaves I used evening evergreen ink. I added a couple of sequins for a little sparkle and a nice purple bow. I wanted to use this as a sympathy card so I chose the sentiment which is Isaiah 41:10. I then stamped the flower in the lower corner to finish the card off.

I made this card in about half an hour.  It is a very simple card to make.  I first stamped the coyote and sentiment.  For the coyote I colored it with markers. For the next step I used several colors of green card stock and layered on the front and then used designer paper for the background.  For the inside I used a simple birthday sentiment and called the card done.
