March Monthly Meeting

Last night was our local demonstrator's meeting. I meet with a fantastic group of ladies every month to discuss products, share ideas, and swap cards. This month we made cards with a masculine theme.

Like a lot of paper crafters, I have difficulty creating cards with a masculine theme. From my husband, I have learned that the card is more pleasing when it is simple, uncluttered, and includes his favorite colors. Simple cards are often the most challenging. I'm still learning! It is easy to add embellishments but difficult to know when to stop. The key is to find the balance with each project. Plus, once you find the card or project style that they like, it will become easier to replicate for other occasions.

Here are the amazing cards from last night's swap. Can you guess which one was mine?



The sets we used were

• Going Global (Item #140748 Wood-Mount; Item #140748 Clear-Mount ), 
• By the Tide (Item #131910 Wood-Mount; Item #129120 Clear-Mount ), 
• Lovely as a Tree (Item #128655 Wood-Mount; Item #127793 Clear-Mount ), 
• Guy Greetings (Item #138825 Wood-Mount; Item #138828 Clear-Mount; Item #137178 Photopolymer ), 
• The Sky is the Limit, 
• In the Meadow (Item #140754 Wood-Mount; Item #140754 Clear-Mount ), 
• Amazing Birthday (Item #134225 Wood-Mount; Item #134228 Clear-Mount ), and 
• Awesomely Artistic (Item #138694 Wood-Mount; Item #139950 Clear-Mount ). 

I think these are all great stamp sets for the guys in our lives. What sets do you use for masculine cards?

I appreciate you stopping by!
