If I had to bet, I would say at 80% of my card classes someone says "I need a masculine card!". I think most Stampers would say they tend to lean toward those cards with flowers, ribbons, buttons and bows. The card I am going to show you today is not only a masculine card but it's "Quick n Easy" too! Let's face it girls, most men don't really appreciate all the time and effort we can put into our creations, works of heart! They will be thrilled to get this card with a little sumpthin' sumpthin' in it too! Money goes in their pocket, card goes in the trash :( This card not only will take you minutes to create but it's cute too!
Just a few quick tips
- Use your Embossing Buddy before embossing it will save you from having stray powder on your black card (it shows the worst on black cardstock with white powder)
- Turn your square punch on an angle to punch your lapel
- Cut your slit in your "Suit Coat" with your trimmer. Pick a point above your embossing and run your trimmer to open up a spot before attaching to the Whisper White base
- DO NOT GLUE the area where you want your funds to slip in.
