Hi! Welcome to my blog. I’m Sara Levin theartfulinker. Today is the Stamping Sunday Blog Hop Make It Masculine. The design team is using our Stampin’ Up! products to create masculine themed projects! Let’s take a look at what I have to share with you and then be sure to tour the rest of today’s hop!

The color combo for my projects is:
Poppy Parade, Crumb Cake, Mango Melody, Calypso Coral,
Terracotta Tile, Balmy Blue and Old Olive.

Stamping Sunday Blog Hop Make It Masculine

First, is this book mark.
It’s perfect for your car guy whether he’s young or old!
Using the Scallop Tag Topper Punch,
cut both the Poppy Parade and Whisper White layers.

Then, stamp the car from Geared Up Garage.
And after masking it, create a scene using the Waterfront stamp set.
(view the video below to see how the scene is built.)
When you’ve completed the scene, color in the card with Stampin’ Blends.
To finish the bookmark, tie with ribbon and twine from the Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo Pack.
Geared Up Garage with Waterfront Card

Moving from the 2″ wide scene on the bookmark to the card,
you can see the whole stampscape.
The stamps in the Waterfront set are great for creating some many different landscapes
for your cards or scrapbook pages!
I’m amazed by all the looks you can design!!
Changing the dimensions of the focal layer gives the illusion of a broader vista.

Combining the texture stamps,
gives you the look of a sandy or gravely shore line at the lake.
And adding some Clear Wink of Stella on the “chrome” and windshield gives them just a touch of shine.
