Bring on the Beer

I haven't even gone back to my little crafty corner lately but did find this picture of just a plain old mug of beer card and thought I'd put it on the blog so you wouldn't forget I was around.  Just haven't been in the card making mood it seems.  Typical ups and downs with the moods on that I guess.  Anyway..........( And see, you saw the picture and title of this and you really really thought I was going to have a super fun post today or something.  Guess I was behaving myself today.  Unusual I know).

The stamp is from Jane's Doodles - and you really can't get much more CAS than this I know.  I added some liquid applique for the foam, colored it with Copics, and that was just about it.  The card base is Kraft of course.

Seems I've been on a masculine card making roll lately and that's good since guys need cards too.

I just notice that the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge is food and drink - so going to pop this over there!



Thanks for stopping by...........and maybe I'll have more to share next week.

This is a fun, guy card. I love how you added liquid applique for the foam, great idea. It's hard to always be up for making a card. Take a break, drink a beer and relax!

This is one of the best male cards I've seen yet! I love the beautiful framework and simple design - it's uncomplicated - exactly the way guys like things! Well done Lynn, and I hope your crafting blahs soon vanish. I know how that feels - I'm like that sappy song lately bobbing up/down/up/down with my stamping too! LOL

I hope everything is OK with you. Your mug of beer looks so refreshing with it's foam spilling over! Another great masculine card! You're right, the guys need cards too.

That mug is looking real good, Lynn! I don't enjoy brew very much, but it looks good enough to drink! I must get a new tube of liquid applique. Me thinks my little helpers ditched mine when we redid the room. It just makes great foam!

NanaConnie said...

Ah, yes, my kind of clean and simple, Lynn - one which includes a foamy beverage. LOL Love how you framed it with the stitched die cut and the foam is fabulous!

What a super fun card Lynn! I am loving this CAS card, that mug of beer looks pretty good too-especially on a hot day. I just got two mugs of beer stamps/dies in a magazine and I'm anxious to try them out. May have to CASE this cool CAS card! It's ok to be a little bad once in a while too! lol Hugs, Brenda

Monica said...

It is beery nice, Lynn and I love the liquid applique. The kraft card stock looks perfect.

I know what you mean by not wanting to make cards. I am going through it right now. I seem to be more in mood for walking. We just moved into our new home and I seem to have lost touch with cardmaking. Infact I am finding it a waste of time. I gave away 60 odd cards as gifts and have hardly sold any of late.

Hope Jim and you are fine,

Monica

Great masculine card! I really like that image.

I've been in the mood to craft...but my mind doesn't want to help me create!
