Just For Guys Team Samples (Part 3)

Hello Scrapping Cottage friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit today. We are sampling DT cards from the new Just For Guys release. There are 14 dies in this release and it's currently on sale for 25% off.
They are ideal for all your masculine type cards. The dies have a great retro and classic look. There are so many possibilities as you will see from the cards today.

We have had a good response when we do a group post on a release. It gives you the opportunity to see more card samples from the Design Team.  We have 4 more samples for your viewing pleasure today.

Card 1: Our first sample is from Janja Albrecht. She created a chocolate bar and used the Hats, Glasses & Moustaches die to decorate it.
To get the look of a chocolate bar, she used the basic squares dies, brown cardstock and then ink to shadow for such an authentic look. She scored the brown cardstock and made a grid before attaching the square die cuts. She added some torn aluminum foil and patterned paper. Super cute idea for a masculine birthday card.
Card 2: The next sample is from Pam MacKay. She used the Train, Bike & Plane die to create a great masculine birthday card. The retro dies coordinate so well with her punny sentiment.
The fold type is a circle top card. When you open the card front it folds over the circle to display the sentiment on the inside as well. Pam bought pre-cut card stock but here is a link to a tutorial on Splitcoaststampers so you can create the same look.
This is the card inside. You can see how the card front folds over the circle so it lays flat to carry the sentiment to the inside. It's such a creative way to tease a guy about his age. And, it's all in fun.
Card 3:  The next sample is from Anja Zurga. She used the Hats, Glasses & Moustaches plus the Retro Alphabet dies to create an awesome masculine card. This could be used for a variety of occasions -think birthday, anniversary or even Valentines Day. She created a tall and skinny card and the use of stitched circles help draw your eye right to the images. These new dies make masculine card designing a breeze. 
 Card 4: Our last card for today is another from Anja Zurga. On this one she used the Racecar & Flags + the Retro Alphabet dies. This is another example of a great guy card for that special someone who is a car enthusiast or auto mechanic. Or how about as a graduation card for the one who will be going to a trade school to learn auto mechanics.
The team did such a fabulous job with their samples today. I hope they have sparked some additional ideas for ways to use these new dies.  And, remember they are currently 25% off in the online store.
