Masculine Cards with Rooted In Nature

It seems like a natural fit to use the Subtle Embossing Folder with the Rooted In Nature Stamp Set to make a great masculine card. Can you see all the texture between the embossing folder and the tree that has multiple colors? I colored the tree stamp with Stampin’ Write Markers and then stamped so you can see the brown branches and green leaves.

The birthday card uses the sentiment from the Perennial Birthday Stamp Set. I think this is perfect to give to a guy. You don’t need to add anything more; it’s simple and the colors rustic.

Here are the dimensions:

• Early Espresso Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, scored at 4 1/4

• Crumb Cake Embossed Layer - 5 1/4 x 4

• Early Espresso Layer - 4 1/8 x 2 7/8

• Whisper White Layer - 4 x 2 3/4

This Praying for You card uses the sentiments from the Thoughts & Prayers Stamp Set which is retired. It’s one of my favorite for these types of cards so I’m holding on to it.

Watch the video to see how I did the embossing and the stamping with the markers. You can purchase the markers as a set. Early Espresso is in the Neutral set and Garden Green is in the Regals Set. You can just use any brown or green, just be sure it’s a water-based ink.
