Hi Stampers. Today I have another dinner jacket card for you today. Yesterday’s dinner jacket was ivory – today’s is done in red (Cherry Cobbler). Today’s red dinner jacket also has a little different “cut” to it.
Much like yesterday’s card, the card base is Thick Basic White CS and the “shirt” is constructed first before adding the “jacket”. The red dinner jacket is made from a 4-1/4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Cherry Cobbler CS with the V die cut out of it using the Suit & Tie Dies. Next, I die cut the lapel, buttons, tie and pockets out of Basic Black CS.
For a slightly different “cut” to the red dinner jacket, I used paper snips to cut down to the bottom of the card from the point of the V and cut the lapel in half in the middle. Next, I attached the lapel and pocket to each side of the jacket. The two halves were then adhered to the card, giving the even border on the sides and overlapping the jacket in the middle. Buttons were added to the top, where it overlapped, so it really looks buttoned shut.
Inside the card is a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Cherry Cobbler followed by a 3-3/4″ x 5″ layer of Basic White. The sentiment, from the Handsomely Suited stamp set, is stamped in Tuxedo Black ink. In keeping with the color scheme, I stamped bow ties, also from the Handsomely Suited stamp set, in upper left and lower right using Cherry Cobbler and Tuxedo Black ink.

Hi Stampers. I’ve been preparing a class by mail using the Handsomely Suited bundle. I was having so much fun playing around I kept going and came up with several cards to share here on my blog. (The cards for the class are exclusive to the class).
This card was very simple to make. It started with a Thick Basic White card base and then I built the Ivory Dinner Jacket on the card front using the Suit & Tie Dies. The shirt had to be built first, by adding the center piece and adding the buttons and the collar.
The jacket is made out of a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Very Vanilla. Using the dies, I die cut the V into that layer and then cut the lapel out of Very Vanilla CS as well. Next, the pocket square was glued to the pocket and then to the suit – before the lapel. The lapel is glued at the bottom and attached with mini stampin’ dimensionals at the top. Basic Black was used for the bow tie and dinner jacket buttons.
Inside the card is another 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Very Vanilla with a 1/2″ strip off Cherry Cobbler across the bottom. After attaching it, I thought it looked a bit like a cummerbund. The sentiment is from the Handsomely Suited stamp set and is stamped in Tuxedo Black ink. Wouldn’t this make a great card for a best man at a wedding?

Hi Stampers. I just love a man who is Handsomely Suited. When the Stampin’ Up! Jan-Jun Mini Catalog was released, the Well Suited Suite was one of the first things on my list. Back in the day, we used to cut the suit pieces ourselves – see one of my really old card creation on Pinterest HERE.
I am so impressed by the Well Suited Designer Series Paper, it looks so much like an actual suit and tie. (The suit and tie on this card are the same piece of DSP, just showing the two sides). My card base is done in Thick Basic White CS and then the DSP is layered over that. It was easiest to start with the tie and shirt collar first and add the jacket over it, so the tie is BEHIND the suit. The collar is glued flat on the top of collar, but not at adhered at all at the bottom of the collar.
Likewise, the pocket square was adhered to the pocket, and that to the jacket front, before the lapel was adhered. There is a mini Stampin’ Dimensional between the tie and the tie knot and under the top of either side of the lapel. Having these pop up a little made them look much more realistic and defines the two pieces.
Inside the card, I simply stamped the “happy birthday” sentiment (from the Handsomely Suited stamp set) in Pacific Point ink.
The Well Suited Suite has everything you need to make a whole bunch of great masculine cards. You get the Handsomely Suited Bundle (Handsomely Suited stamp set and Suit & Tie Dies), the Well Suited DSP and the Well Suited Twine Combo.

Hi Stampers, do you remember the “magic wallet”? As a kid, I remember being mesmerized trying to figure out how the items switched sides. Today I’m here to show you how to make one out of Stampin’ Up! supplies.
I started with Basic Black CS, added some Gold Foil and then Added the World of Good DSP. (See video below for all the measurements and further instructions).
There is a Starbucks gift card on one side of the Magic Wallet and a sort of cheat sheet on the other side.
Stampin’ Tip: I made a miniature version of the wallet using bakers twine (without the top layers of paper) as a guide, so I don’t forget how the ribbons are attached if I ever want to make it again.
Ribbons in the Magic Wallet are in the form of an X on one side and two straight ribbons on the other side. When you flip it (like pages in a book) open and closed again, the gift card and my guide switch sides. Kids love it!
To finish off the Magic Wallet, the outside of card is decorated with the DSP and then I used the World Dies with Balmy Blue and Just Jade CS to make the globe. Some Gold Foil, cut out of the middle layer, is used to make the globe base and the scallop oval. The sentiment (from the Beautiful World stamp set) is stamped in Just Jade ink onto a Whisper White oval.

Hi Stampers, do you have trouble finding ideas for masculine cards? Today’s blog hop will fill you with ideas! My card is the first of a few that I made recently using the circle swirl technique. This one took me a bit to figure out, but once I did – it was really easy! I showed my stress free way of creating this card on my Facebook Live last Monday. (Note: Filming wasn’t exactly stress free. There was a bit of a microphone issue in the beginning, but I got it fixed. An edited version will be added to my YouTube Channel later.)
I wanted to try this circle swirl technique and found many instructions online. When I looked at an example, i wanted to change up the colors to match the Gilded Autumn DSP and it got me SO CONFUSED! Remember, my motto of “there is no NO STRESS in stamping”… This made we want to figure a way to make it simple. This card starts with an Early Espresso card base and then a layer of Gilded Autumn DSP was placed over that.
What I figured out was to use the Stitched Shapes Dies and cut the outer colors (Cajun Craze & Early Espresso) using the largest and smallest circles. (I used the largest and smallest die and cut them both out of Cajun Craze and then both out of Early Espresso). The middle colors (Soft Suede & Mint Macaron) are die cut using the two middle size dies.(Both colors cut out using both dies as before). Next, I cut all circles in half using the paper trimmer.
Stampin’ Tip: The colors were chosen because there are used in the DSP – don’t’ you love how Stampin’ Up! makes it so easy for us?!?!
When getting ready to do the swirls, I used one half of each size. The top row has Early Espresso as the largest and Cajun Craze as the smallest. They are all flushed to the right side and glued together. The bottom row is the reverse and all glued together on the left. I used the smallest stitched circle one more time to cut out a full stitched circle in Very Vanilla. Onto that circle I stamped the word “Happy” from the Well Said stamp set. The word “birthday” (from the Well Written dies) was die cut from a piece of Early Espresso CS (with Adhesive Sheet on the back). I placed the word “birthday” where it would cover up the seam between the two circle halves.
Inside the card is a layer of Very Vanilla with a sentiment (also from the Well Said stamp set) stamped in Early Espresso ink and a strip of the DSP adhered along the bottom of that layer (to coordinate with the outside).
The Well Said stamp set and Well Written dies go together wonderfully and can be used for so many occasions!! You will see that in the coming week as I make more of these circle swirl cards using different DSPs, colors and words!
Below is a list of all the blogs on this hop, click on these links to follow along and see more awesome ideas for masculine cards!
