Hey there! Today I have another masculine birthday card to share. I created this one with the new Soar Confidently stamp set from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. It's a stand-alone set, which means there are no dies or punches to accompany it but I love vintage images, so I had to have it to play with!
After I stamped the bi-plane with black ink I then used a Blending Brush to softly swirl Pool Party ink for the sky.
I was able to leave the area of the greeting ink-free. I added a couple of Gilded Gems because while sparkly, they also look a bit industrial, or rivet-like.
I embossed the Pool Party layers with the Old World Paper 3D embossing folder to continue the look of clouds.
Inside I used sentiments from Handsomely Suited, another mini catalog stamp set.
Speaking of the Mini Catalog and the Sale-a-bration brochure, if you usually receive these mailings from me but you haven't received your copies yet, please let me know ASAP so I can notify Stampin' Up! to re-mail. Hopefully the January P.O. will be faster!
