If you struggle to create masculine cards for some of the dudes in your life, I have a project today that just might fill that need! Using a brand new background stamp from Simon Says Stamp, I created what I’m calling a faux metal background using some gold cardstock and gold embossing powder. I thought it would work great with my Dude word and shadow die set.
Here’s a video showing you how I created this card!
This Diamond Pattern background stamp is part of the brand new release from Simon Says Stamp called Friendly Frolic. I have one new release that I’m pretty excited about, designed for both card makers and scrapbookers and anyone who likes to add custom tabs to their projects.
Tabbed Sentiments is designed with a series of sentiments that will work in the two sizes of tab dies that are part of the Simple Tabs set. I created the Simple Tabs set both with a folding tab die and standalone tabs. The folding tabs add a score line to your paper for easy folding.
