Emboss Resist, Father's Day, Masculine

Emboss Resist Background Father’s Day Card feat. Catherine Pooler Feelin’ Fizzy

Hello friends. Father’s Day is in a few weeks and today I’m sharing a masculine card that was so much fun to make and didn’t actually take too long. The most time consuming part of this card is the heat embossing. And as you can see mine didn’t come out perfect but I left it so you can see that things don’t always work out how we want and that’s ok!

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base, as well as a piece of Strathmore 300 Series Bristol Paper, cut to 4 x 5-1/4″.

For the background, I stamped the bubbles and the bottle caps from the Catherine Pooler Designs Feelin’ Fizzy stampset with Versamark Ink and then heat embossed using WOW OPAQUE BRIGHT WHITE Embossing Powder. Then inked it with Catherine Pooler Designs Pebble, Hoodie, and Cummerbund Inks.

I stamped the bottle images onto some Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Catherine Pooler Designs Midnight Ink using the Catherine Pooler Designs Feelin’ Fizzy stampset for the outline and It’s a Girl and Party Dress; Melon Ice and Lime Rickey; and Fiesta Blue and Something Borrowed Inks for the liquid.

I stamped the sentiment from Feelin’ Fizzy stampset onto some Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Catherine Pooler Designs Midnight Ink and fussycut it out. I stamped the “Happy Father’s Day” sentiment onto some Simon Says Stamp 100# Black Cardstock with Versamark Ink and then heat embossed using WOW OPAQUE BRIGHT WHITE Embossing Powder. I cut it down to 1/2 x 3-1/4″.

Before adhering anything onto the background panel, I added Ranger GLOSSY ACCENTS to the bubbles. 

I finished off the card by adding some Key Lime Nuvo Jewel Drops.

I left the inside of the card blank.

Hello friends. Mother’s Day is coming soon and if you need to make a quick card here’s one for you. For this very bright and happy card I used stencils to create a quick background with lots of punch.

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 10 x 7″ and scored at 5″ to create a card base, and another piece to 4-3/4 x 6-3/4.

I stenciled the background using the Lawn Fawn Corner Rainbow Stencils and Tim Holtz Kitsch Flamingo, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade, Mowed Lawn, and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Inks.

I die cut the sentiment from the top panel using the Lawn Fawn Giant Happy Mother’s Day as well as twice from Simon Says Stamp 100lb Black Cardstock. Then stamped the butterflies from the Simon Says Stamp Beautiful Day stampset (This came in the SSS April 2018 Card Kit which is now discontinued) with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.

I finished off the card by adding some Fresh Snowfall Nuvo Glitter Drops.

I left the inside of the card blank.
