Welcome to this month’s Ink, Stamp, Share Monthly Showcase Blog Hop

This month I am showing you how I made some male birthday cards using the Timeless Greetings Kit. I tend not to use out kits to make cards but this year I have tasked my self to make up the kits and to design other cards using the elements in the kit. As it is my son’s birthday this month I wanted a special card but working full time finding time to craft can be difficult. In the Timeless Greetings Kit you get everything you need including a Stampin’ Spot (mini ink pad) to make 8 cards. As the kit has a Stampin’ Spot and stamp set you can use these to make other cards. So scroll down to see how I made some other cards using this kit.

In this kit you get enough product including instructions to make 8 card bases and envelopes.

How I made some Male Birthday Cards using the Timeless Greetings Kit.

First I started by making one of the cards as per the instructions in the kit.

For my second card I cut a Basic White portrait card case. Next I cut one of the card bases to make a mat layer for my card base. Then using the clock face image I stamped all over this mat layer using Soft Suede ink to make my own back ground image. Next I stuck this mat layer onto the card base. I then stamped the clock face image onto the push out clock face using Soft Suede ink. I had to stamp the back as I messed up the front. This I then stuck onto the push out clock before adding to the card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I then stuck the clock chain onto the mat layer.

For the sentiment I stamped the ‘Happy Birthday’ sentiment onto one of the push out rectangles again using Soft Suede ink. I then pushed out one of the green mat layers in half and stuck it to the sentiment and added it to the top of the card base. I then added some of the lovely bronze embellishments to the card.

For my final card I again cut a Basic White portrait card case. Again I cut one of the card bases to make a mat layer for my card base. Then using the clock face image I stamped all over this mat layer using Soft Suede ink to make my own back ground image. Next I stuck this mat layer onto the card base. I then stamped the clock face image onto the push out clock face using Soft Suede ink. This I then stuck onto the push out clock before adding to the card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I then stuck the clock chain onto the mat layer.

For the sentiment I stamped the ‘Happy Birthday’ sentiment onto one of the push out rectangles again using Soft Suede ink. I then cut one of the green mat layers in half and flagged the ends before sticking to the sentiment and adding to the bottom of the card base. Then I added some of the bronze embellishments to the card.

I enjoyed designing with the Timeless Greetings Kit and making the tree male birthday cards. Why not have a go at using this kit to one of our other kits to make some cards. Please do share what you make onto my Facebook page.

Until next time, keep stampin n crafting,
