SF-2022 May Blog Hop - Celebrating Men!

 

Be sure to hop through all the blogs on the list near the bottom for tons of wonderful inspiration as we Celebrate Men!

 ~*~*~*~*~  

This month is all about projects are for the men in my life - I have birthdays and Father's Day coming up - so these work perfectly.   So for my card it pretty much starts and ends with this Designer Series Paper from the current January - June 2022 mini catalog.  

#157882  Hey Sports Fan DSP 12"x12" $11.50
There is very little stamping involved in my projects.  I took a Very Vanilla Base, a layer of Poppy Parade, and elements from the DSP.  How cool is this - add some twine, and a few star elements - and you have a quick and easy masculine card.

Here is how I finished the inside - quick and easy - 

Then - for guys I am a terrible gift giver!  So gift cards it is - this matching gift card holder is just 1/2 of a card base that I sealed around the sides and bottom with tear and tape.  That leaves just enough room to tuck a gift card in.

To make it easier to get that gift card out - I added a little tab, made with DSP folded - corners cut out with the cloud punch - and attached to the gift card with glue dots.

Love it - and how about tucking in some actual ball game tickets - how cool would that be?  Of course I didn't have any - but this gives you an idea :)
