A Classy Guy

#stampinup   #faithfulinkspirations   This past weekend I had a birthday card stamp-a-stack and we had a great time putting together some fun cards. All of them, except today's card, have already been featured on my blog. I really love today's card--I love the True Gentleman Suite of products in the Occasions Catalog and I love the clean design of this card. Each guest made two of these "blue" cards and two "brown" cards like this one I previously shared. My guests chose their own sentiments for their cards.

I started with a 3-3/4" by 3" piece of the True Gentleman Designer Series Paper for the bottom and a 3-3/4" by 2" coordinating piece of the same DSP for the top. I adhered these to a 3-7/8" by 5-1/8" Crumb Cake Card Stock mat. I wrapped a length of Crumb Cake Classic Weave Ribbon around the pieces where they meet and then adhered everything to a Thick Very Vanilla Card Stock card base. I love this ribbon--it's so easy to work with, it ties and lays nicely, and it feels silky smooth. It also comes in Soft Sky and Whisper White.

Next, I stamped one of the sentiments from the "Truly Tailored" stamp set in Night of Navy onto a Very Vanilla scrap and punched it out with the Tailored Tag Punch. I punched another tag from Night of Navy Card Stock. I trimmed down the Very Vanilla piece, adhered it to the Night of Navy tag, and then used Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere it to the card.

What a great card for the guys in your life. And you can save 10% when you purchase the Truly Tailored Bundle and get the stamp set and the punch!
