Fancy Friday - True Gentleman

Hi stampers!  So....I have some super exciting news to share!  I was asked to be a part of the Fancy Friday Blog Hop and I'm so honored to be amongst the talented current and past Artisans on the team!  It seriously made my whole month!



This month's challenge was to incorporate the True Gentleman Suite or at least use it as our inspiration.  The colors in this one are just so good!  I'm glad this was the challenge as this is on of my way underused suites!  There's just so much good stuff and so little time for stamping!



Anyway, I wanted to create a super masculine card and what's more manly than a suit jacket and tie?


There are about a million tutorials on YouTube on how to do this and make an origami tie, so I didn't want to reinvent the wheel and do one myself when you can simply search for one...and May has been crazy and I flat out didn't have time :-)

But if you follow me, you know I'm a lazy stamper (ha) and don't do things that are hard to do or take a lot of time so if I can do this, you can too!  Just search for "suit jacket card" or something similar.


Unfortunately, the DSP is sold out but you could easily create your own DSP for the tie or substitute other paper!

And here's what it looks like fully open.  It really was simple to make!

It really is a nifty little card!  Wanna see it in acton?  Head over to my InstaGram account @badabingpapercrafting and see a little boomerang video!

Now it's time to see my friend and fellow ADT member, Shannon, and what she came up with!  It's sure to be amazing!




Happy stamping!

Finally Friday

Hi stampers!  It's FINALLY Friday!  It's been a week with Ian being sick and Jon being gone.  Ian is also starting to drop naps which is really hard to get used to since he's been a three hour napper on average for about two years.  He still needs them a few days a week and he napped well the past two days after being sick but it's definitely messing with MY routine :-)  I haven't got much done this week!  He's not napping today and I should go stamp while he's binge watching PJ Masks (he's still tired but I'm letting him just be lazy instead of napping so he actually sleeps tonight lol) but I can't seem to get up off the couch.  Oh well.  Instead, I'll share a card since I didn't get a post schedule last night I guess!

I held off on the Truly Tailored Suite for a while but I always need masculine cards and this one is great!  I whipped this one up pretty quickly with a sketch I'd had pinned.

I hand trimmed the main image and then used the punch to make a mat for it.  I also chopped off the ends of the label for a bit of a different look.  Don't forget you can alter our punched images.

Have I mentioned I'm going to miss those washi tape packs?  I'm also going to miss the enamel dots! I need to start using mine up so here's a start.

Happy stamping!
