My Kind of Guy

Photo Details
Poster: MDO Susan

 It's odd and wonderful how sometimes things just fall into place. I need to make masculine cards for my Mariposa Mountain Stampers group; I was enjoying going through the 1000th Featured Stamper Claudette's gallery and happened on this guy Bear Reflection by lamoore at Splitcoaststampers

Out came my newest stamps by Simon Hurley and an old one, SU Wildlife Wonder. I followed the directions here for Cathy Zielske's "fun fold." https://www.cathyzielske.com/2024/10...n-woodsy-card/

It was SO easy! I've included the inside so that you can see how neatly the sentiment fits in back of the popped up fella on the front fold.

Wow I love this card Susan! Thanks for playing along this week. That Simon Hurley stamp looks like a must have for me! :-)
A great masculine card. Love the way you added color to the woods on the front and inside.

What a great transition from Claudette's card to your updated version. Sometimes the trickiest part of these fun folds is hiding the sentiment and you have done that beautifully!

Your card has such an inviting, woodsy warmth. The bear feels perfectly grounded against those softly colored trees, and the fun‑fold is working hard in the best way — the hidden sentiment tucks in so cleanly behind the focal panel. The mix of Simon Hurley’s whimsical lines with the Wildlife Wonder bear gives the whole design a storybook quality that still reads masculine and crisp.
