You are My True North Masculine Card!

Fun colors for today's masculine Father's Day card.  Remember, these cards could be for more than just Father's Day but they are tending more towards the masculine side of things.

I used the Cricut Going Places cartridge, an oldie but a goodie, and cut the compass at 2--1/2", with many layers.  I pop dotted it onto the front of the card.  I found the striped and chevron papers at Hobby Lobby and it strikes me as nautical looking - perfect for a compass.

I used a die to cut the scallops.

The inside sentiment is from the best manly stamp set around:  Scrappy Moms called "For the Boys":

Have a Whaley Good Time Whale card

Today's fun 5" x 5" card comes from two older cartridges:  Cricut Create A Critter for the whale and Going Places for the ocean.  What's handy about that ocean is that I was able to use the blue cut out pieces for this card below on Everyday Cricut today:

As you can see, I was feeling a bit nautical today in my "under the sea" animal choices. LOL!

I popped up the red square a bit to some dimension.

It's hard to find a good sentiment to go with a whale.  Enter the Close to My Heart "Under the Sea" stamp collection ($13.95). Take a look below:
