This card was CASE-ed from the lovely Mary Fish (CASE = copy and share everything). You can find her original creation here. I just chose different colors (a suggestion from the new Color Coach!) and a slightly different layout/pattern.
I started with a piece of Bravo Burgundy card stock sized to 5″ x 3.5″ and then carefully adhered my Curly Label punch-outs in the pattern I wanted. Any punch pieces hanging off the Bravo Burgundy, I just trimmed with my Paper Snips. I also added a trusty “stay put bow” (see tutorial link on the left) and stamped a simple sentiment from the new Hostess Level 3 set – Occasional Quotes.
And there you have it – a clean and simple (CAS), masculine card. This card is for my cousin’s birthday today. Happy Birthday, Brett!!!
| Stamp Sets | Occasional Quotes (new Hostess Level 3) |
| Ink | Bravo Burgundy |
| Paper | Crumb Cake (Kraft), More Mustard, Bravo Burgundy |
| Accessories | Curly Label Punch, Crop-A-Dile, Bravo Burgundy 5/8″ Grosgrain Ribbon |

What a great idea. I can see this design making a lot of nice masculine cards.
