Handsomely Suited meets Many Messages

 Thank you for joining me today!

Happy Birthday Leigh

An easy card to make with virtually no stamping. I've also found a way of getting my images correct for the new many messages stamp, if you have a Stampartus.

The trick is to die cut first, position the stamp in the stamparatus over the negative of the die cuts, then place the die cuts inside and stamp. For the tee shirt collar use the layering circle dies. Sorry about the retired embossing folder but I don't seem able to stop using it!

Materials required for this card are:

Card Stock: basic black, basic white

Designer Series Paper: well suited

Dies: messages, suite & tie, layering circles (3)

Embossing Folders: *subtle 3D, tasteful textiles 3D

Embossing Powder: black

Ink: versamark

Stamp Sets: handsomely suited, many messages

Accessories: scoreboard (for ribbed section of the tee shirt).

* = retired, when using layering dies (1) is the smallest.
