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

Approaching Perfection Vertical Easel Card

Recently, I received a wonderful fun-fold card from my friend Boni Montano-Ortiz. It made me think that I could change up the orientation of the card, and the idea would still work. Here's what I came up with:

 



All orders placed through February 28th of $50 or more qualify for one free Sale-A-Bration item. The Flower & Field DSP, and the Approaching Perfection Stamp Set are available only as FREE items during Sale-A-Bration.

Card measurements:

Pool Party: 4-1/4" x 11", score along the 11" side at 2-3/4" & 5-1/2"

Basic White: 4" x 5-1/4"; scrap for greeting a little bigger than 2" x 3-1/4" and a small scrap for the bumper on the inside

Flower & Field DSP: (or any DSP you choose) 4-1/8" x 5-1/4" (cut along the 5-1/4" side at 2-5/8") and another small piece for the bumper on the inside

Just Jade: scrap piece a little bigger than 2-1/2" x 3-3/4"

Basic Black (you could use Basic White): 1-1/2" strip

Here's a video I put together showing how quick this card comes together:
