Today I am sharing a card made for my son in law Dom’s birthday. He and my daughter are lucky enough to live on the edge of the Peak District in the UK and they love to get out to walk or climb as often as possible. I have used the stamp set called A Good Man and teamed it up with my favourite Mountain Air stamp set.
To recreate the Good Man card, you will need:
Thick Whisper White card base –- 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Misty Moonlight – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner x 2
Whisper White ¼” strip
I started by stamping the man in the deckchair using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I stamped it again onto a large Post It note and cut it out using scissors. I wanted the man in the deckchair to be in the foreground of the picture and used the cut out as a mask.

With the mask in position I stamped the mountains in Misty Moonlight ink, the detailed image in full strength ink and the background reverse image in 2nd generation.

I stamped the row of trees in Garden Green ink and the water in Balmy Blue ink. The ‘ground’ from the Snow Front’ stamp set was stamped in 1st and 2nd generation Sahara Sand ink.

I peeled the mask away and coloured in the image using the following Blends Markers – Poppy Parade, So Saffron. Just Jade, Crumb Cake and Ivory.

The stamped panel was glued to the Misty Moonlight panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The whole panel was added on Dimensionals to the Thick Whisper White card base.

The sentiment from the Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set was stamped onto a ¼” strip of Whisper White in Misty Moonlight ink and cut it down using Scissors. It was added with liquid glue to the card front.
I hope Dom likes the card.
