How to create an old fashioned experience

Maybe it's because Father's Day is this weekend. Or maybe I am heavily influenced by the new World of Good product suite. No matter what the reason, I am really into masculine colors, cards and colors right now.

I am sure you have seen lots of what is popular from Stampin' Up!s new catalog on Pinterest and Facebook. But have you seen this set yet? It might be time to take a closer look at Whiskey Business.

Whiskey Business Cling Stamp Set
$19.00

This set is so fun and so masculine (to me). The sentiments and images have an old-fashioned feel to them which makes them fun to craft with. Add the new Cinnamon Cider In Color and you can create the amazing card below. And did you spot that you can also purchase Stampin' Blends in these new In Colors? Wow.

Instructions:

Stamp decanter and whiskey glass in Memento ink on Whisper White. With the fine tip of the Dark Cinnamon Cider Stampin’ Blends marker, outline inside edges of decanter and glass. Fill in with Light Cinnamon Cider while blending. With Dark Daffodil Delight, layer color on top of Cinnamon Cider to create an amber color. Gently lay a strip of removable tape over bottom part of decanter and glass to create a straight line and color in with Light Smoky Slate. Gently remove tape. With a very light touch, brush Clear Wink of Stella on all “glass” areas and ice cubes.
With Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder, emboss Whisper White piece and card front.
With 3” square die, cut out Whisper White decanter/glass piece.
Stamp sentiment on Cinnamon Cider strip then punch with Lovely Labels Pick a Punch. Trim so it is about 2-5/8” wide. Add staple at left edge of sentiment.
With Stampin’ Seal attach Designer Series Paper piece to Early Espresso. With Stampin’ Dimensionals, attach Whisper White piece off center leaving room for ribbon. Whisper White piece should be about 5/8” from edge of Early Espresso. Attach all to card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Fold ribbons in half and fan out. Staple an area that will not be seen under sentiment. Adhere to right of Whisper White with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Trim ends, as desired, with Paper Snips.
Affix sentiment on upper right of Whisper White piece with Stampin’ Seal. Stabilize right edge with a Stampin’ Dimensional that will adhere to the Designer Series Paper.
Add one Cinnamon Cider enamel dot to left of staple on sentiment piece.
