I used the wonderful DSP pack called “He’s the man”, to make this 12 x 12 layout. It uses showcases all the papers from the pack.

I started by stamping and daubering the edges of a 27 x 27 cm piece of Sahara Sand card. I then embossed some smaller pieces of Sahara Sand card with the Brick and Mortar 3D embossing folder and tore the edges of each piece. I daubered the raised areas and the torn edges using Sahara Sand, Cajun Craze and Early Espresso inks. I joined the two embossed pieces together and covered the join with a folded circle shape. I made several more of these shapes to scatter on my layout.

I finished with a tailored tag journal box and some die cut pieces from the “He’s the man” pack. There are die cut pieces for all interests from cars to camping and handyman to hero. I thought this die-cut featuring the beer glass was just perfect for my layout.

My customers usually only make a single 12 x 12 page in class but they often ask me how to do a double page layout. This is a mock up I did as a suggestion for them. Nothing was glued down.

I was impressed that my group of ladies all wanted different die-cuts to complete their own pages. There were many different variations to choose from so there was no fighting. Lol.

Here is another example of the layout. This page was made by Wendy Foley. She also used the retired Playful Alphabet dies.
