OSAT Blog Hop – I Need A Hero

Welcome to the One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop! Our theme for today is I NEED A HERO. Well apparently I do need a hero because I could not think of a hero to make my projects for so I turned it around and made some masculine get well cards and maybe…just maybe I will be someone's hero when I deliver these cards in their time of need? It might be a long shot…and being a hero requires some pretty big shoes – but I'm willing to give it a shot!

I chose the WINTER WOODS stamp set and combined it with the fabulous greetings from HEALING HUGS. These are two MUST HAVES in my book.

I have a quick video tutorial showing you how to make both cards and some great tips for the box here:

I love love love the birch trees and combined with the PINEWOOD PLANKS embossing folder and a little sponging – I think my card turned out pretty good….what do you think?

There's not a lot of fluff on my man cards….they (men) are pretty straight forward most of the time and don't require a lot…right? Do you like the Vellum Cardstock leaves? I thought they were a great embellishment for this layout.

Dimensions:

• Night of Navy 11" x 4 1/4" scored at 5 1/2" & scrap
• Whisper Whate 2 @ 4" x 5 1/4" & scrap

And my second card is another quick and easy one – I am going to have a blast making more cards with these trees – they have such a classic look!

Dimensions:

• Gray Granite 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"
• Night of Navy 4" x 5 1/4" & scrap
• Whisper White 3 7/8" x 5 1/8", 4" x 5 1/4" & scrap

And then I thought this cute little box was a perfect gift for my sick friend. I think it will hold a little cup of coffee too!

My box is a simple 2-4-6-8 Box – I give you some great details to make your own in my video. I can't hardly wait for one of my man friends to get sick…OH NO…that's not right! I will wait patiently and be happy that I have these cards and this little gift ready when I need them.

I hope you enjoyed these projects and you'll make some of your own!
