The Stampin' Up! Let's Go Fishing designer paper has a lot of amazing patterns to create masculine cards. I used several patterns to create two cards last month which I CASEd from the Annual Catalog.

If you're not familiar with the term, CASE is another way to say "copy". Traditionally, it is defined as "Copy And Share Everything", but I prefer the definition "Copy And Selectively Edit". Although in this case, I made very few edits and created the card pretty close to the originals from pages 82 and 101 of the 2023-2024 Stampn' Up! Annual Catalog.

I've had my eye on the Scenic Wonders stamp set since the catalog first came out in May. And it's this card that inspired me to get it! I love the simple technique of spotlighting the center of the image by stamping again and layering on a solid color of cardstock.
Scenic Wonders Card Measurements:

- 2-1/4" x 4" Basic White Cardstock

Many thanks to Janet Siddoway who inspired the next card. She shared this card for the Great, Big Card Swap and I absolutely loved it the moment I saw it and knew that I had to CASE it! The mechanics are fairly simple: there is a hole in the center of the tail that sits over a Stampin' Dimensional that attaches the branch to the background piece. The fussy cut image swings and pivots on the Stampin' Dimensional.
Little Monkey Card Measurements:
- 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" Pecan Pie Cardstock
- 2-3/4" x 4" Old Olive Cardstock
- 2-3/4" x 4-1/4" Early Espresso Cardstock
- 2-1/2" x 4" Basic White Cardstock
- 4" x 5-1/4" Basic White Cardstock (inside)
- Additional cardstock to stamp and cut out monkey and branch
I don't know what Janet used on her card, but I created a hole using the Tailor Made Tag Dies. Watch the replay of Thursday Night Stamp Therapy for tips on how to make this card. The Little Monkey card starts at 41:00.
