Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing My Classic Birthday Cards using the He’s All That Bundle by Stampin’ Up! which includes the He’s All That Stamp Set and the All That Dies.

The Details of My Cards

For my cards, I need to create two masculine birthday cards and I thought the He’s All That Bundle is perfect for those kinds of cards! One card was for a car buff and the other was for my Father-in-law.

I decided to use a sketch that I have used before for another card. I love using sketches to inspire me. A link to the other card using this sketch will be at the end of this post.

The He’s the Man Specialty Designer Series Paper was perfect for my Classic Car theme! It even comes with coordinating die-cut images of which I used the arrows for my cards and the notebook die-cut for my Sahara Sand card.

For the sentiments, I used the “Huffing” Technique where you use the Stampin’ Write Markers to colour the stamp in different colours. When you are done, you huff on the stamp reactivating the dried ink so that you can stamp the image.

Since my theme is classic cars, I thought the Metal Plate Embossing Folder in Early Espresso would add to that theme on my Early Espresso card.

The only embellishments were the Rustic Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots that balance the arrow and adding to my masculine feel of the car theme.
