Welcome to the Creative Inking Blog Hop, I am so excited to be part of this hop and I know you will enjoy all the projects this month.  Our theme this month is Masculine Cards.  The struggle is real when it comes to me making masculine cards and the struggle is even more real when I have to color something to make it look like real life!  But, I grabbed my Whiskey Business stamp set and this card just came to  me and I love it.  I kinda feel like I killed the coloring and I am patting my self on the back because I really struggle with coloring. :-)

I created the card during my Facebook Live show on Thursday night so you can watch the cropped video below.
I used the Whiskey Business stamp set and a tiny strip of the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper and I thing he paper makes the card.  just a tiny strip is the difference between an Ok card and a fabulous card!
I have been practicing my coloring skills and I think my coloring of this decanter and glass are pretty good if I do say so myself. :-)
Had to add a bit on interest to the inside of the card as well.

Thanks so much for stopping by, I have some amazing projects for you today!  Our theme this month is Three Cheers and we will be celebrating birthdays!!  I chose to use the In Bloom Bundle for my card and Diaper Fold Pouch. I have a video for you below, scroll down to view it. 
The Pierced Blooms Dies have the most delightful stitching on them, it is hard not to smile while creating with them.
I chose to use Pool Party, Rococo Rose, Pear Pizzazz and Bermuda Bay on my card.  I am sad that Rococo Rose is retiring but I do get to use it for a couple more months. :-)


Did you know that this flower image can double as a butterfly when you use the left vein as the butterfly body.  Soooo cute!!!!  I drew the antennae with my Bermuda Bay Stampin' Write Marker.
The Diaper Fold has been around for years but it is still so cute.  I used the 2019-2021 6x6 In Color Designer Series Paper to create the pouch.  I will be making some of these during my FREE Facebook Class tonight.

Here is a really cute card using the Reverse Masking Technique.  I chose the sweet bunny from the Springtime Joy stamp set as my focal point and I have a video below showing you how to do the technique and create the card. I created one in landscape mode and one in portrait mode.
I used one of the Greenery Embossing folders on the layer on this version and I really like it.  The Tricolor Ribbon coordinates with Purple Post really well.
I colored the little flowers on the bunny with the Highland Heather Stampin' Blend Markers and the leaves with the Light Just Jade Stampin' Blend.

I first taught the Reverse Masking Technique about 13 years ago when I held my Technique Classes in my home. This one was a big hit so I am bringing it back!  check out the video below t learn how to do it. 
I combined Early Espresso, Daffodil Delight and Just Jade ith a touch of Vellum on my card.  The cute gingham Ribbon is part of the Flowers For Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack.
I used the Daisy Lane stamp set along with the Framed For You to create the focal point of the card.
This is what my participants received in the mail each month.  A completed greeting card and a technique instruction card with a sample of the technique.
