Ink-Stamp-Share Monthly Blog Hop- Male card

Hello there and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share. March Monthly Blog Hop as we showcase male themed cards to help inspire you. I hope you will take the time to hop along and visit the amazing Stampin' Up! Demonstrators who are participating in our blog hop as they share their ideas and projects to help spark your creative spirit.

When I saw this month's male theme, I immediately though of the Whiskey Business stamp set.

For my card, I decided to make a square card. I cut a sheet of Early Espresso to 11.5" x 5 3/4" and scored on the long side at 5 3/4". I used Cinnamon Cider as my mat & layer and cut this to 5.5" x 5.5" and randomly stamped the whiskey decanter all over. I then layered this with a square of vellum, cut to 5 1/4" square.

On a piece of Basic White, I stamped the decanter and glasses then coloured these in with my blends in a mixture of cinnamon cider light and dark, dark mango melody and dark pumpkin pie. To the edge of the glasses and decanter, I added a hint of light pool party. I fussy cut these out and stuck them to the sentiment with dimensionals. 

For the sentiment, I stepped it up by using dies from the Hippo and Friends dies to cut some early espresso and embossed it with the Pinewood Planks embossing folder; then stamped a sentiment on the cinnamon cider die cut. 

With the vellum on the background, I love how it makes the whiskey decanter and glasses pop and makes that and the sentiment the focal point, It was a really fun and easy card to make and I think will suit any whiskey drinker, my dad included!

If you would like to make one of your own, details of products used are listed below.
