More Boys Cards
Posted by Nicki | Under Cardmaking, Stampin Up Monday Feb 1, 2010Oh I hope you guys don’t get bored with me making boy cards. I never understand when people tell me they struggle with boys cards… I love making them. They can be lots of fun, cute and happy or a bit rugged is also ok.
Here are three very different cards that I hope will inspire you all…
Card One…
For this one I really wanted to use the three buttons together, and was very excited when I realised that all three colours are found in the Hoppy Moments Scrappin Kit. I’ve teamed it with the Wild About You and Retro Greetings stamp sets.
Card Two…

I made this one at the same time as the first one of my flower cards here an it is actually the same layout. I love using a layout and using it for both male and female cards. I have used the Jumbo Star wheel with Kiwi Kiss ink on Kiwi kiss cardstock. Then punched some small stars from kiwi kiss and attached them onto the card, behind a piece of Good Morning Sunshine DSP and a piece of whisper white stamped with Outlined for Fun in Pacific Point and coloured with a blender pen and the kiwi kiss ink. The card is finished with a large punched Pacific Point star and a chipboard star, daubered in kiwi kiss and finished with crystal effects.
Card three…

You may not recognise this stamped image as it is one a friend of mine in the states sent me. It’s called Putt Putt and is so very cute. I’ve teamed it here with the Sweet Slumber DSP and the greeting is from Occasional Greetings. The tug boat is coloured with my aqua-painter and Riding hood red, baja breeze and so saffron ink pads. The card is finished with some Baja Breeze striped ribbon.
So thats it for today, as I said earlier I hope you like these and they inspire you to make some more boy cards. Make sure you pop in and let me know how you go.
till next time, happy stamping,





Very cute Nic
HOW cute is that boat and very clever how you have used it.
