I feel bad that I have not been showcasing and making cards for my wonderful hubby so this is for him! He has been such a trooper through his whole injury etc…

Today is his 1st day of Physical Therapy at the doctors! He has been doing PT here at the house 3 X's a week but today he is getting to go to the "real office" and he is excited to get his legs rolling!

This truly is a card that is MUCH better in person as the photos do not do it justice what so ever! Another bummer for me is…I left my I Phone in a friends car and this shows me….how well they take pictures…this is a great masculine card!

Here is a quick run down! I wanted to use the Regals Core'dinations Paper in the Cajun Craze Color! Love this paper as you can sand it (like I did here) or it is great to tear it….it is just fun and a different twist!

Running it through the Big Shot with the Houndstooth Embossing Folder was the start of this wow for the card! Next, I used the Sanding Block to let some magic and a rustic yet modern feel to the card come to life!

The sentiment came from the super fun and I think over looked Stamp Set, Spread the Joy! It is fun set and can make some really "heartfelt" cards! I loved the movie The Bucket List and I thought this would be a great sentment for John!

I have had many emails about "fussy cutting" and the best tip I can give you is…don't try to be perfect with your cuts….just roll with it and let the scissors do the work! I always use the paper snips and I think they are the best little scissors out there!

Matting them on Midnight Muse, I cut them again and then used the "ends" of stampin dimensionals to make them get a lift up! To balance the card I simply added some regal candy dots…a perfect and quick touch!

The envelope was a quick run through with the Envelope Liner Framelit using the Regals Designer Series Paper Stack, a must have to make your projects have that perfect finishing touch!

Do you have a "Bucket List"?

This is something that I think of often as there are many accomplishments that I still want to do…and the funny thing is – most of them are very, very simple…just some goals that I have!!!
