April Special Cards

 Here are some special cards made this month

Creative Card-iology Team April "Carryover/Mini Catalog Products" Blog Hop

Welcome to the Creative Card-iology Monthly Blog Hop

 Our theme this month is to use products

that are being carried over to the new 2021-2022 Annual Catalog

that will go live on May 4, 2021.

 

For this project I choose to make a Masculine Card using the 

HANDSOMELY SUITED Stamp Set, and the Suit & Ties Dies.

currently in the January-June Mini Catalog witch retires at the end of June.

If purchased before June 30, 2021, you can save10% if you buy 

  HANDSOMELY SUITED BUNDLE #156240 and only pay $47.50

 Any products that are carried over from  2020-2021 Annual Catalog or 2021 Mini Catalog

 will no longer be bundled in the new 2021-2022 Annual catalog.

 HERE ARE THE INSTRUCTIONS I USED TO MAKE THIS PROJECT 

In this tutorial the name Seal is referring to the use of the new Stampin' Seal

• Cut a piece of Balmy Blue CS 8½" x 5½" – score at 4¼", fold in half and burnish with the Bone Folder to create the card base.
• Cut a piece of Basic White CS 5½" x 4¼" and seal to the Balmy Blue card base.
• Cut a piece of Balmy Blue CS 5½" x 4¼".
• Place the edge of the V die about ⅝" to ¾" from the top left side of the CS and run thru the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine (SCEM).
  
  
  
• Insert the large piece in the Hammered Metal Embossing Folder and run thru the SCEM, then Seal to the top part to the White CS.
  
  
• Cut a piece of Basic White CS 1½" x ½", color with the Ivory Stampin' Blend then seal to the top center of the White CS.
  
  
• Cut a piece of Basic White CS 4" x 1½".  Using the SCEM cut 2 collar pieces. Seal one collar to the top center of the card over the top of the ivoy piece.  Set the other collar aside for now.
  
  
• Cut a piece of Balmy Blue 4½" x 1, stamp a tie using the Misty Moonlight Stampin' Pad, then run it and the small rectangle thru the SCEM using the tie die and the small rectangle die.
  
• Using Tombow, adhere the tie, under the collar and inside the bottom of the jacket.
  
• Cut a piece of Misty Moonlight CS 4¼" x 4¼" and run the jacket lapel die, the pocket die and the button die thru the SCEM.
  
  
• Add a little tombow to the bottom of the V then to each side of the lapel and adhere to the card.
  
  
• Adhere the side and bottom of the pocket to the card.
• The Collar piece you set aside, cut the top ½" off leaving 2 small triangles. Adhere them insie the pocket to ack as hankerchiefs in the pocket. 
• On a small scrap, add a greeting, run it thru the SCEM, trim all sides just inside the dashes and adhere to the pocket on the card.
• Cut a piece of Basic White 5¼" x 4", stamp an inside greeting, then adhere to the inside of the card.
