Quick Cards for Men

Happy Monday! Ever been in one of those situations when you need a card- and quick! Well, in the midst of December busyness, my hubby has a birthday… and I found myself needing a card… well, you know what I’m going to say! Have any men in your life with a birthday this month? I’m here to share this quick card… just in case you might need one!

Simple Product Coordination

What makes this card so easy to create is Stampin’ Up!’s system of product coordination. For this card, it only took about 15 minutes using products I had on hand!

While I love their stamps, in my opinion, product coordination is the BEST reason to buy Stampin’ Up! If you’re not taking advantage of their basics like ink, cardstock/Designer Paper and embellishments, you’re missing out! They’re the best on the market and can be used with any stamps you may have. Actually use what you buy to create beautiful projects with ease!

Notice how the Night of Navy ink color matches the Night of Navy Cardstock, which also matches the Night of Navy Baker’s Twine- all of which match the Night of Navy in the Tranquil Textures Designer Series Paper? The Stampin’ Up! system means no products sitting around gathering dust because you don’t have anything to go with them. Everything coordinates!

Today’s card is a remake of a favorite card sketch I’ve been using for years. Find the original Project Tutorial HERE (seen below) or another birthday version HERE. The DSP and stamp set in these examples are retired now, but as you can see from today’s card, it’s easy to substitute!
