I'm excited about today's new products because they help make creating masculine cards and gifts a breeze (something I struggle with!)
I decided to create a tag and card duo that will be perfect for Father's Day gift giving. For the tag I first cut the tag from light grey card stock using TOPPED OFF TAG Confetti Cuts. Next I stamped the word "dad" from TIE-RIFIC repeatedly on the tag using light grey ink to give a tone on tone look. I stamped the polka dot tie from TIE-RIFIC on white card stock using dark blue ink and cut it out with TIE-RIFIC Confetti Cuts. I stamped the sentiment from TIE-RIFIC using black ink. I used the new SQUARED OFF TAG TOPPER to cut the green card stock for the top of my tag. I topped off my tag with some SOLID MIDNIGHT BLUE TWINE and a blue button.
For my card I cut a bunch of the word "dad" from light grey card stock using the "dad" die from TIE-RIFIC Confetti Cuts. I glued them all down at an angle on a piece of light grey card stock. This almost looks like embossing and I just love the look! Next I cut the pocket from TIE-RIFIC Confetti Cuts out of white card stock. I stamped the word "dad" from TIE-RIFIC using green ink and "the man. the myth. the legend." using dark blue ink. I decided to add some green card stock around the pocket to make it stand out. To finish my card I added some of the blue twine and more buttons to match the tag.
So what do you think of today's products? Pretty awesome, yes?
