Continue readingAnother great card from a recent get together with some other Stampin’ UP! demo’s. I love this one as I am pretty rubbish at making cards for the fellas in our lives – the Adventurous Sky Stamp Set with coordinating Adventurous Sky Dies are perfect for creating masculine cards, alternatively it would make a great card for anyone who loves planes or flying regardless of if they are a ‘him’ or a ‘her’ 🙂
