Man Card

No, ,I don't have one, nor am I revoking anyone else's "Man Card." I just received some of the products from the new Summer Mini Catalog and had to show you the Not Quite Navy masculine card I made for my Wonderful son-in-law!

This sailboat stamp is sold individually for $9.95 and is called Sail Away. The sentiment set is from the set Wonderful Favorites, which is one of my all-time favorite sets and the background stamp is Sanded. This is one of the two projects we will be making in my monthly techniques class on Friday, May, 27th at 7:00. This card uses two techniques: paper piecing and heat embossing.

The class is $10.00 per person or FREE with your $30.00 product purchase (before tax and shipping). Contact me today to sign up for this class.
