Each Monday I share a masculine theme card. I just needed a sentiment for the card front because the print paper does everything else.

Card Base: Cut Evening Evergreen8 ½ X 11 paper in half widthwise. You now have two pieces 8 ½ X 5 ½ . Fold one of the pieces in half lengthwise for your card front. The card front now measures 4 ¼ X 5 ½.

Card Mat: Cut Misty Moonlight 4 X 5 ¼ .

Card Front: Cut New Horizon print paper 3 ¾ X 5, use the picture of the card as a guide where to cut your paper. You will have a piece that measures 2 ¼ X 6, save this piece for your envelope flap. You will also have a scrap that measures 3 ¾ X 1, save that piece for the inside of your card.

Card Insert: For the inside of your card, cut a piece of Basic White 4 X 5 ¼. This is how I set up my Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment for the card front and the card insert at the same time.

I used the 3 ¾ X 1 scrap to add interest to the inside of my card. Attach the card insert inside the card.
