Hi it's Therese and today I have created a clean & simple masculine card and due to a technical glitch (lol), there was a change of design along the way and you get to see it because I was filming.
I stamped a graphic style background using the triangles from Sohcahtoa, the main sentiment was embossed and inlaid die cut using the Halftone Smile stamp set and matching die. And the other sentiments and embossed balloon came from the Birthday Greetings set with the balloon die, and of course all stamped with a masculine color combination of the Altenew Crisp Dye Inks.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at Youtube.

Your card is pretty. I enjoy watching your video all the time.
Thanks so much
Thanks so much for this video. I screw up ALL the time, but when I watch these videos the stamping is perfect (without a MISTI, mind you), the embossing is perfect, the die cutting is perfect. ..and me–not so much! So I appreciate seeing an “expert” be imperfect for once, then figure a way to get to perfect. Wonderful.
I was just happy to save the card and not have to start again lol. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment. Therese
Wonderful card, Therese and excellent video. A wonderful creative use of the stamp set … makes me smile!!!
Thanks so much Harriet, Have a great and crafty day, Therese
love how you fixed your “problem” – and i’ve had so much trouble with the matte medium i’ve quite using it – looking forward to your new class with Altenew this week.
So excited that you are joining the class, I can’t wait either! See you there, Therese
What a nice ‘masculine’ card!! You really are cleverly artistic!!
Thanks so much Suzanne, Hope you have a great day, Therese
Cute card. Love your freehand technique. So glad to hear I’m not the only one who had their fine tip glue itself closed! Yes! It was my matte medium. I still love it. Just shows what a great glue it is!
Yes, my matte medium is still unusable, you’ve just reminded me that I have to raid my hubby’s shed and find a set of pliers and see if that works lol. Thanks so much for visiting and commenting, Therese. Ps I really like this glue too!
Therese – AWESOME – I really love the way this card turned out!! The triangles are so dynamite looking and such a fun masculine card!!
Fabulous as ever Therese! I love that you show us ideas for some older sets that we might have – I have that Sochatoa set and haven’t used it in ages, I must dig it out again – and the popped up, camouflaged sentiment is terrific! You are so inspirational! TFS Have a lovely weekend! Hazel xx
