I used two new stamp sets from the 2014-15 Stampin’ Up! Catalog to create my card today. I used the Traveler and Something to Say sets for my Retrosketches #116 inspired card.

The Open Sea in Red White and Blue – Stampin’ Up!
I was so happy to see some designer paper in the new Stampin’ Up! catalog with more traditional nautical colors and designs. The Maritime DSP has some prints that are more fun with the little fish and octopus but some that will work great for masculine cards too. I used a little of the Maritime DSP and The Open Sea stamp set to create my card to share today.

May Paper Pumpkin from Stampin’ Up!
My Paper Pumpkin kit for May arrived on Friday so I tore right in and put the kit together. This time the kit made some cool Father’s Day cards and masculine birthday cards.

Pure Gumption CAS Graduation Cards – Stampin’ Up!
I can’t believe it, but it’s getting to be that time of year! Graduation is right around the corner so I’m getting my stack of cards started. I used the Pure Gumption and Oh, Hello stamp sets from Stampin’ Up! to create two quick cards. This card is easy to customize to whatever the school colors are…the orange and black one will be going to my nephew in a few weeks!
My card design was inspired by the My Favorite Things Sketch Challenge 172 and CAS-ual Fridays CFC130.

Lovely As A Tree Thank You – Stampin’ Up!
I pulled out one of my all-time favorite stamp sets from Stampin’ Up! called Lovely As a Tree to create my card for the Stamping and Blogging SB51 Sketch Challenge. I’ve been seeing a lot of the emboss resist technique on cards lately (a technique that is so much fun!) and I wondered what it would look like with different shades of brown. This is the result…I think it’s pretty cool! Hope that you do too. 🙂

The Open Sea Masculine Birthday Card – Stampin’ Up!
I’m posting a little early this morning, I’m off to go volunteer at the Sweet H2O Sweetheart Half Marathon at a park just outside Atlanta. It’s a trail race and with all of the melting snow, I’m guessing that the runners will be covered from head to toe in mud! But it will be lots of fun, I’ll try to grab and post some pictures on my Facebook page. 🙂
Today I’m sharing a birthday card that I made with The Open Sea stamp set and the new Scalloped Tag Topper Punch from Stampin’ Up! My card design was inspired by the Mojo Monday 332 Sketch.
