CCMC Saturday Blog Hop - Masculine

Good Morning, Stampers!

Welcome to the Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop!

We are celebrating the men in our lives this week and with Father's

Day just around the corner, we are hoping to give you some 

inspiration to help you create a one-of-a-kind special card for the men in your lives!

Rococo. A NEW word you are seeing in the new catalog - 

in color, styles and more! What is it? Well, the

dictionary says this:

rococo

[ ruh-koh-koh, roh-kuh-koh ]

noun

a style of architecture and decoration, originating in France about 1720, evolved from 

Baroquetypes and distinguished by its elegant refinement in using different materials 

for a delicateoverall effect and by its ornament of shellwork, foliage, etc.

Very Veresailles is a new stamp set from the 

Annual Catalog that is exactly that! It's gorgeous detail and

picturesque design make this a winner for any special man in your life!

To recreate the card:

1. Stamp the left side of the card front using Sahara Sand and the script image.

2. Stamp the leaves using Mossy Meadow on top of the script images.

3. Stamp the border image across the card front using Early Espresso ink.

4. Stamp the label image onto Early Espresso cardstock using Early Espresso ink. 

5. Cut using the Stiched circle label.

6. Adhere the stitched circle to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals.

7. Stamp the sentiment onto Very Vanilla cardstock using Early Epsresso ink.

8. Cut a "V" on both ends of the cardstock to form a banner,

9. Adhere the banner to the tio of the label.

10. Punch (3) leaves from Vellum cardtock and adhere by tucking them behind the circles. 

Happie Stampin'!
