2. Stamp “sky” with Pool Party and “ground” with Cajun Craze.
3. Stamp greeting in Early Expresso and sponge edges and glue to Early Expresso CS. Then glue to Lost Lagoon card.
4. Glue larger Very Vanilla CS inside.
For the Fisherman in Your Life – Bear Hugs!
One of my favorite stamps from Stampin' Up!'s 2016 Occasions Catalog is Bear Hugs. I used it to make this masculine birthday or Father's Day card. The inside is a fancy fold called a book card.
I used clear Wink of Stella and Crystal Effects on the fish.
Inside:
Directions for Book Fold Card:
1. Outside Card: 8 ½” x 5 ½” Scored at 4 ¼”
2. Inside Card: 8” x 5” Using your cutting and scoring tool line cardstock on long side at the ¾” mark and start cutting from 1” to 7”. Turn 180 degrees and line cardstock on long side at the ¾” mark and start cutting from 1” to 7”. Now with long side at top, score the outside at 2 ¼”, 4”, and 5 ¾” ( you will be scoring from the cut lines to the outside. Now score the inside part at 1”, 1 ¾”, 4”, 6 ¼” and 7” (you will be scoring between the cut lines).
3. Fold the card insert as follows: outside parts — valley fold, mountain fold, valley fold. Inside part – valley fold, mountain fold, valley fold, mountain fold, valley fold.
4. Decorate the inside of card. The glue together with outside card by folding the inside piece closed, apply adhesive on one side and glue about ½” from outside edge. The do the same on the other side.

Love You to the Moon – I Really Do!
Don't you just love Stampin' Up!'s Love You to the Moon (#133143 for clear mount, #133140 for wood mount) stamp set? It can be used for any occasion such as Valentine's Day, Anniversary, Miss You, Thinking of You, well you get it, almost any occasion. Today's card could be used for the man in your life or a child (is their a connection here???). I used Crumb Cake, Night of Naavy, Cherry Cobbler and Whisper White card stock. I used Stampin' Write markers to color the stamp, huff and stamp on the white card layer.
Did you notice the Sale-a-bration Decorative Dots (#133520) embossing folder on the Crumb Cake front? You can get the embossing folder free during Sale-a-bration with a $50.00 net product order!

Hope you liked it. Comments are always welcomed.
