It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players. For this week’s color challenge, Jaydee has selected a trio of jewel-toned hues to be paired with Whisper White. With a dog show looming on the horizon, I knew that today’s card had to be quick and easy. Since I needed a masculine card, and because these colors would work perfectly, the stage was set for what I would create. Trust me…this card truly can be made in a matter of minutes! Enjoy!
The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips: Quick and Easy Masculine Cards
This finished card measures 4-1/4″ wide x 5-1/2″ long.
- Be selective! The Feel Goods sentiment, “She believed she could…so she did” was transformed instantly to “HE believed HE could…so HE did” simply by using a Midnight Muse Stampin’ Write Marker and not inking the “s” in the word “she”. How perfect is this for any man who has accomplished a goal or achieved a dream! The Gumball Green mat was created with two Labels Collections Framelits.
- The power of three! A Mosaic image, from the new Mosaic Madness set, was inked in the three challenge colors and punched out with the Mosaic punch. How quick is that! Of course, I could not resist adding a Pearl to the middle of each.
- Texture terrific! In keeping with the mosaic theme, what could create a better background than the new Modern Mosaic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder! And although you cannot easily tell it in the picture, the Midnight Muse mosaics are matched perfectly to the Whisper White ones.

Hi Anne, I just love how you incorporated all the new goodies on your card! These colors are perfect together. Great job it is so bright and cheery.
What a clever use of the Feel Goods stamp set, Ann! Love the stamp set you chose ;-)–it’s perfect for these colors!
I can’t even tell you how much I love this card! Great colors and that sentiment change is genius!!
I like those new sentiments and those little mosaic pieces. Neat colors and card for a guy!
Leave it to you to make this a He instead of the She on the stamp. You never fail to amaze me.
Nice card!
That sentiment is great and the embossing folder is cool. Great card!
Great idea and a beautiful card!
How smart you are!!! Wonderful!!! I love the bright colors for this week’s challenge. Bravo!
I love the pops of bold color on that beautiful white texture. Wonderful card, Ann!
Ann, What a joy this card is! Very clever and beautiful and masculine – all at the same time.
Marvelous card….and I may just CAS it for a graduation card for friends son who is graduating from college in June….Thank you for the inspiration!
Fabulous masculine card. Love your new stamp sentiment š
Happy Mother’s Day!
I think your idea is brilliant! I love the masculine card you made, your design is perfect for a man.
I hope you have a wonderful Mother’s Day.

Brilliant idea! I was wondering why it had to be just for females. Leave it to you, Ann, to find the work-around for that! Love the card and I am sure it will be appreciated.

Love the changed sentiment. These are great colors and I’m loving the mosaics. Great card. Happy Mother’s Day Ann.
This is a great card and very clever on your part!! Thanks for sharing.
How cool!! Great idea to change the sentiment…I love it!!
Aren’t you clever to change the she to a he! I love it! I loved the peek yesterday so I was surprised with the raspberry ripple. It’s such a nice combination of colors. I’ll have to give it a try. Great card!
Ann, I had to do a double take when I saw your card this morning. How clever to turn the “she” into a “he”. I love it! Hugs š Sandy
I have been debating the Mosaic Madness stamp set and embossing folder. I think you just cinched it with this gorgeous card.
Beautiful card and what a lovely color combination and layout. Well done.
Happy Mother’s Day to you Ann and everyone else as well.

I love it! So bold and striking! How awesome that you transformed that sentiment! And I love how you matched the embossing so perfectly with the two colors! Here’s another set that I wasn’t too interested in and now you have changed my mind!
