Making masculine cards can be tricky for me. And then trying to make them quickly can add to the struggle! Well, today this card overcomes both of these hurdles showing you how to quickly make a CAS masculine birthday card. I used a couple of simple stamps from the Catherine Pooler Designs ‘So much possibility’ stamp set, but you could apply the process to any samps your have in your stash. Combine it with a masculine colour scheme and you’re good to go.

CAS masculine birthday card: creating the background
Start off by adding four of the smaller stamps from the Catherine Pooler Designs ‘So much possibility’ stamp set onto acrylic stamp blocks. Next, choose a selection of masculine toned colours ready for stamping. Here this cards uses Juniper Mist, DayDream, Stone Blue and Hot Tub Catherine Pooler inks.
Start off at the bottom, stamping with the largest stamp in the darkest ink. Keep stamping horizontally and then start moving up the card. As you move up the card, start stamping in a smaller stamp and in a slightly lighter shade.
As you near the top, start to space out your stamping to give the appearance the pattern is fading out. Trim the background down and foam mount onto a white card base.
Heat emboss in white onto black card a sentiment from the stamp set and foam mount this onto the front of the card. Lastly, add a few Chalk White Vintage Nuvo Drops to embellish the card.
