Dapper Dad Leadership Swap Card

Hi Everyone!  I'm back to blogging, finally.  My back is much better.  I'm busy working during tax season but I still have lots of cards to show you.  And I have lots more I want to make and share. 

Earlier this monht I attended Stampin' Up!'s Leadership Conference.  Three days with 1500 stampers...fabulous!!  I participated in Lyssa's Swap (same one I did at Convention last summer).  This is a highly organized swap with lots of talented stampers.  No pressure, huh?  My customers always want ideas for masculine cards.  Since SU came out with a couple of great stamp sets for this kind of card in the new Spring Catalog I decided to use them for my swap.  This card features Dapper Dad and Beyond Plaid.

With all the argyle in the stamps I thought the Argyle embossing folder would be the perfect background.


The embellishment uses the new Natural 7/16" Trim Ribbon.  Isn't it perfect for masculine cards?  I just tucked it behind a Cajun Craze button and tied it all together with Linen Thread.

I am so happy you are better. Funny I like this card a lot even though you think it is not a Carol card and funny I picked out that this is not a Carol card.

Happy Saturday
