I've been away for a few days.  Working on cards for my class Sunday and also for the SU convention swap I am in.

Today the card is using the watercolor technique and the You Got This stamp set. (139575)clear
The colors used were the new In Colors of Watermelon Wonder and Cucumber Crush.  Using watercolor paper we stamped with Versa Mark(102283) and embossed with white embossing powder (109132).  Then using the Aqua painter brush (103954) we colored it in with Watermelon Wonder (138323) and Cucumber Crush (138324) inks. The Watermelon Wonder lace (138425) was used as well as the new In Color embellishments (138383).


The card was a Z- Fold card using Watermelon Wonder (138334) and Very Vanilla (101650) for the inside of the card. The saying is also from the stamp set and punched out using the Decorative Label punch ( 120907)

These are some pictures showing the class making the cards in this class.
More cards made and pictures coming next time.

I hope you all had a fun, exciting and safe 4th of July!

My next card is the last one in the masculine class.  It was an idea I saw from Brian King's blog on paper layering to make a card.  I really liked the look of just a simple stamping but different colors and sizes of paper.
As you can see I started with Mossy Meadow cardstock and then used the different sizes of Crumb Cake and Whisper White. The train was stamped in Crumb Cake ink and comes from the stamp set Traveler.  Sending Wishes Your Way comes from the Butterfly Basics stamp set.

Happy 4th of July!!

Here is a third card from the masculine class.This is a versatile card for so many different occasions, such as birthday, congratulations, brother, father, uncle, just to name a few.

I used Early Espresso for the base and center part of the card.  I also used some of the new neutrals designer papers for the stripes.  The car comes from Guy Greetings along with the two sentiments.
I stamped it using Early Espresso ink.  I added three gems and used the blendabilities to color them with.

Here is the second card I made for the masculine class.
I really liked this one that I found on Pinterest. I made it using Lost Lagoon ink and card stock.  I also used black card stock for the base card and the larger of the 2 ovals used on the card.
I stamped the ship in Memento Tuxcedo black ink on Whisper White card stock and then used the next size smaller of the oval framelet to cut it out.

The stamp set I used was the ship from the Traveler on pg. 82 of the new SU catalog. I also used the Arrows embossing folder.

Today I'm going to share a card from our masculine card class I did before Father's Day.

I used Guy Greetings for this card that I found on Pinterest.  The colors used were Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla, and Night of Navy for the card stock colors.  Using Crumb Cake ink the anchor was stamped randomly on the bigger Very Vanilla piece.  Happy Birthday, Your My Anchor and the lone anchor were stamped using Night of Navy ink.
I hope you enjoyed this first card in the series of 4 masculine cards in this class.

I need to take pictures of the rest of the cards for this class and the new product class, so hopefully we have some sunshine Thursday :-)
