This time of year is full of hand stamped card worthy events so I'm trying to keep up with them all and working ahead a bit for the ones I need. Usually I'm a last minute stamper but I'm trying to be more organized by looking ahead on the calendar. Up next for me is Father's Day and I thought the fun camera and film strip in the Capturing Smiles bundle would be a great masculine card.
I started with some 2026-2028 In Color Painted Patterns DSP in a striped Peaceful Pine pattern. I wanted to use some of the small nature scenes in the stamp set and the green was a good starting point.
Next I cut 2 of the film strips and added stamped hearts, the sentiment and a beach scene and camping scene after coloring them with Blends markers.
The camera is stamped on Balmy Blue cardstock with Memento black ink. I used the Balmy Blue Blends dark marker to highlight a few areas of the camera image and then die cut it. The lens and lens heart were stamped and die cut and added to the camera.
I dug around in my retired sentiments to find one that that fit the vibe of the card and came up with Many Manly Occasions from the May 2016 Paper Pumpkin. I stamped it in Timid Tiger and and trimmed it down to fit the space. This could easily become a birthday card with a quick change of the sentiment too if you're stuck on a masculine birthday card idea!
A few retired Faux Glass Dots are a nice simple embellishment to finish this card.
Thanks for looking! Did you stamp today?
