I fell in love with this stamp set the moment I saw it. A nature centric set containing images of pods found in nature it lends itself to masculine projects. There are: Sweet Gum Balls, Lotus seed pods,Poppy seed pods, maple seed pods, & Gooseberry or Golden berry seed pods. A variety of sentiments for different occasions are also in the set.
Sentiments in the Enjoy The Moment set are versatile.
I look for sentiments that cover a variety of occasions. This set contains just that. Create new sentiments after stamping them by cutting them apart and rearranging them. Cut them apart to give each sentiment a totally different look. I cut apart one of the sentiments in creating this card. The sentiment is no longer long, it is now short & sweet.
I wanted to create a card layout that could be masculine or feminine. A monochromatic theme and a little of our Artistic Blooms Designer Series Paper was all it took. My color of choice is Calypso Coral.
For the feminine version I stamped the images in Calypso Coral ink and used the Calypso Coral Stampin’ Dark & Light Blends to shade the pods.
For the masculine card I stamped the images in Calypso Coral ink and used the Light Cherry Cobbler and Dark Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends.
The differences are slight, the deeper colors gave them a more masculine feel.
Here is a video showing how I created this card.
Stamping the sentiment in Calyso Coral for both and then cutting into two balanced the design. The ladybug embellishment was placed differently on each card. Which design do you like better?
Just a few minor changes can give your cards a different feel. Change the Designer Series Paper but keep the layout the same and you can get another look. Adhere the “Good Things” sentiment on the front of the card, then the “Are worth waiting for” on the inside to change it up.
