Good morning! It's Sarah here with a set of simple holiday cards perfect for the men on your shopping list. I find that the same ideas that keep card designs easy to mass produce are some of the best ideas for keeping a card man-friendly: clean embellishments, simple stamps, and uncluttered layouts.
I started my cards with a classic die cut shape and a festive sentiment from Essential Holiday Elegance. I topped the labels off with 3D beer stickers from my stash, punched card stock holly leaves, and red bling berries. I chose the colors of the leaves and card bases with three color schemes in mind: a classic red and green, a frosty blue and red, and a warm, beer-inspired gold and red. Each of the 4bar size cards were stamped with the new Flurries background using coordinating colors for a subtle, snowflake effect and wrapped in red baker's twine.
Warn, beer-inspired gold and red.
Frosty aqua and red.
Classic green and red.
I LOVE these!!:)
ReplyDeleteFabulous guy cards, Sarah! Love how the twine is different on each one.
ReplyDeleteLOVE these, Sarah! SO bright and festive! PERFECT!
ReplyDeleteI love all of your cards! I love how the snowflake background stamp looks on each of the different colored cardstocks. These are perfect masculine cards, but I can see it appealing to girls too!
