How to Build a Masculine Card

I know many of you struggle with creating a masculine card.  Well today I’m here to assist you with that!
 
 
I think there are two main things you can do to make a masculine card pretty easy.  First: Choose your color palate.  I took my color palate of Basic Black, Delightful Dijon, Lost Lagoon, Sahara Sand and Very Vanilla directly from the Going Global Designer Series Paper Stack from the Occasions Catalog. 
Second: Stick with nature or geometric shapes.  I took my cue from the Going Global stamp set which has images of the earth and constellations (can’t get much more nature than that).  One other thing I like to do t a masculine card (well to pretty much any card for that matter) is to add texture.  On this card I used the World Traveler Textured Impressions Embossing Folder for the background.  I’s very impressive if I do say so myself.
 
Are you getting your wish list ready for the premiere of the Occasions Catalog which is next Tuesday, January 5th.  I’m getting very excited about it!
 
 

Botanical Blooms

We love it when things coordinate.  It makes creating that much easier.

 
 
So let’s take a closer look at the Botanical Gardens Product Suite from the Occasions catalog.  Now I’m sure you’ve already noticed how the die cut flowers from the Botanical Builders Framelits Dies coordinates perfectly with the Botanical Gardens Designer Series Paper.  And I’m sure you’re aware that the Botanical Blooms stamp set coordinates with the Framelits, but did you see that the stamp set also perfectly coordinates with the Designer Series Paper?  Look closely at the paper, do you see the veins on the leaves and the centers of the flowers?  they’re stamped with the images from the Botanical Blooms stamp set.  Now more that ever, these coordinating products make creating easier.  And the best part is that you can save 15% when the bundle (which includes the DSP, the Framelits and the stamp set) are purchased together.  Don’t worry, you only have to wait a few more days to order these and all the other fabulous items from the Occasions catalog.  It goes live on Tuesday, January 5th.
