Today, I’m sharing a masculine card created with the Penny Black …Lost Without You [#30-248] stamp set from the new Sunny Stamping release. This stamp set lends itself to a variety of masculine cards including birthday, graduation, new job or promotion, and Father’s Day.
I used the compass in the set to stamp a tone-on-tone background. I stamped the suit twice, once in brown and again in rust, and fussy cut the rust one to use for the tie. The sentiment was stamped twice as well. I first stamped “lost” and then masked that word when I stamped the rest of the sentiment.
For a new job or promotion card, it would be fun to choose a different color for the suit and tie like navy or gray.
Ah, I wish I’d had that stamp set when my father was still alive! He always wore a suit, at least until he had to spend his days in Physical Therapy right before he passed away. This really brought back memories, and a few tears. Thank you! Wonderful card! I love the sentiment.
What a great Father’s Day card! I love the color combo, and the metal clip is fabulous! Love how you stamped your sentiment in different colors, too!
