For today’s Cards for Men I thought I’d do something different. So, there’s not a stamp in sight or even needed for these cards.
Sometimes I simply want to make a card and just don’t fancy getting the inks out. Shock horror. Also, I know that there are people to who love to make cards but will use just dies or punches because they don’t like to stamp. Card making is for everyone and it doesn’t have to involve stamps all the time. It was therefore a bit of a no brainer to use the Come Sail Away Memories & More Card Pack today. Despite the fact that the name implies memory keeping or scrapbooking, these pre-printed cards are great for card making too. This is because –
- They are designed to coordinate with current Stampin’ Up! colours and double sided paper.
- They also coordinate with a stamp set and dies, so these are an additional option.
- There are two assorted card and envelope packs available. So there’s no need to make your own card bases.
Check out this quick video which gives you are brief run through of all the cards, sticker sheets and laser card cards in the pack.
Here’s the two cards that I’ve made
There is some matting and layering of the cards from the pack. And, I also die cut the ships wheel using the Smooth Sailing Dies and some scrap Night of Navy card stock.
This second card uses one of the laser cut cards.
The laser cut card was glued directly to another card from the pack. Using the Smooth Sailing Dies again, the ropes and also the label were die cut from some scrap Soft Suede andMossy Meadow card stock. A sentiment from the sticker sheet was added to the Mossy Meadow label.
