Stamp Simply #87 - For the Guys!

Keyword ssnotime87 -There is no time limit. You can play this challenge and upload yourproject at Splitcoastand/or your Blog, anytime at all! You (and that means anyone and everyone, blogger or not!)can play as many times as you like!!! The point is to keep it simple, quick and have fun!!! Please link back here.

FOR THE GUYS - When I first started stamping I did a ton of masculine cards, living in a houseful of guys, but I slowly got away from it and now don’t do nearly enough of them. Fathers’ day is still a month away, but we have all sorts of occasions to give those guys in our lives cards — so make a card for one of those guys in your life, but there is one more stipulationlets make sure our cards include either string, rope, cording or knots of some sort – which is what I used to include on guy cards all the time when I did them years ago. So pull out those *rugged ribbons* - LOL — and let’s create for those guys in our lives!!!

Check out the greatsamples for the Stamp Simply Challenge today on the blogs of these designers:

Please bear with us as we are all uploading and linking on Thursday night.

You can see all Gallery Submissions here.

What wonderful samples!!! Thank you girls!!! Much appreciated!!!

Heres myguy creationfor today:

I think it fits the bill: masculine, string, knots, Stamped Simply! Not a whole lot to say! As before, I put down a narrow strip of red sticky tape across the card front and then wrapped my string on top of it — holds the string perfectly!!! I like this rugged look on a guy card. I was happy to be able to make my own THANKS in a size I wanted by using my JustRite Times New Roman Uppercase Font. Simple card — enough said!

Stamps: Times New Roman Font Uppercase used on the Harmony Rectangle Stamper by JustRite.

Paper: PTI Vintage Cream, Granola DP by Basic Grey.

Ink: VersaFine Vintage Sepia. ColorBox Chalk Creamy Brown.

Accessories: May Arts String from the Stamp Simply Ribbon Store, Red Sticky Tape, Glue Glider.

Disconnected from the World!

Hi everyone! Just a note to tell you all that I will be computer-less, beginning in about an hour, until Monday evening. OH my, HOW will I survive - LOL!!!

Anyone wishing to be put on the Bow Easy waiting list (shipment #5 has been ordered) is welcome to email me at ssj@up.net to have your name added. Just be aware, it’ll be next week until I can respond — but rest assured as long as you send me the email, you WILL be on the list. Again, it’ll be about 2 weeks for this order to arrive.

I am still expecting Bow Easy shipments #2 and #3 to arrive by the end of this week (hopefully) or very early next week. Again, I will not have computer access until Monday night, so if the Bow Easy shipments have arrived, you can expect to hear from me. I will begin contacting people in order of requests received.

Don’t know what the Bow Easy is — read here and here.

OH, and the Stamp Simply Challenge that posts on Thursday nights has been pre-posted, so it’ll pop up as usual. Give the FABULOUS Stamp Simply Girls some love and check out their creations!!!

I’ll be back as soon as I can!!! Thank you all so much!!! Happy weekend everyone!!!
