This card is one that Shelli Gardner, the co-founder of Stampin' Up!, presented to SU demonstrators at our annual convention last April. The entire Boho West series in the current catalogue is really fun and rich, and this project is a quick one that features some of that great style. And let's face it - most guys prefer a simple, straightforward look anyway! If you have a husband who notices when you get a haircut, consider yourself lucky!!
This project featured the Wanted set, one that is much more versatile than might initially appear. I just love the large medallion in this set and the way it works perfectly with the scallop punch. I've also used the Outlaw paper series, perfect for those masculine stamping projects.
A neat technique with this card is setting those new jumbo eyelets. If you have not yet tried the crop-o-dile, it's time you did! People are always so surprised at how EASY it is to set an eyelet using this tool. And the feature that sold me is that it will punch through chipboard and thin metal. Altered tins, here we come!
