Simple Handsomely Suited Birthday Card

I recently participated in a swap with some fellow demonstrators. The suggested theme was manly birthday cards. Don't we often need those? I really wanted to use the new Handsomely Suited bundle from the January-June Mini Catalog in making mine. Here's what I came up with:


This layout is one I go to often, but this time I turned it all around. The supplies are simple, and there is just a little bit of die-cutting involved. Check out the video below for hints on how to put it together. 

Here are the measurements:
Basic White Thick cardstock: 5-1/2" x 8-1/2", scored along the 8-1/2" side at 4-1/4"
Basic Gray cardstock: 4" x 5-1/4"
Night of Navy cardstock: scrap piece big enough to stamp and cut one tie
Basic White cardstock: scrap big enough to stamp and punch out greeting using the Label Me Pretty punch
Well Suited Designer Series Papers: 3 coordinating pieces, each cut 1-1/4" x 3-3/8"; and another piece to put on the inside cut at 1/2" x 4"
Basic Black cardstock: scrap big enough to cut out buttons using the buttons die included in the die set

2011 Desktop Calendar

This month in my stamp club meetings, I had the gals make these desktop calendars. It was a big hit. The image to the left of the calendar can be changed according to the season (winter, spring, summer & fall) by removing the image and placing one of the other 3 onto the velcro dot (attached behind the image). The corresponding side of the velcro dot is placed on the back side of the images. I used the stamp set A Flower for all Seasons , #111592, $14.95. And, the extra images are stored inside in a small cellophane bag. The calendar base takes only 1 sheet of card stock to make, measuring 9" x 6-1/2". With simple scoring and folding, it goes together very quickly. Another demonstrator had shared the calendar file that is printed onto printer paper and cut to size. All fit into the 1/2" library clip from the clips assortment (#112580; $6.95). There are 8 of them included in the package along with a couple of other style of paper clips. While they are still ...
