Ok, let's see my sample card ideas using the Well Suited suite. On y go! Let's get stamping.
​

Well Suited to Perfection Card Idea

The Well Suited suite includes the Handsomely Suited stamp set, the Suit and Tie dies, the Well Suited patterned paper, and a twin combo pack in Basic Gray and Night of Navy. You can use the dies to cut out the stamped images or on their own to create a suit front or shirt front. 

For this card, I cut the suspenders from a piece of the paisley patterned paper using the dies. I also added the buckles cut from silver foil. I cut the rectangle for the shirt, the color, and the placket from a piece of checked patterned paper in the suite. I added Basic Gray buttons. The die for the button cuts six buttons at once! Finally, I stamped the bowtie on Whisper White cardstock with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored it with Pool Party Stampin' Blends. 

I built the shirt front on a piece of Basic Gray cardstock and then on a Pool Party card base. The sentiment is from the Approaching Perfection stamp set which I got for FREE when I purchased the Well Suited suite. This stamp set has some really fun birthday sayings!
​

Bowtie Birthday Card Idea

I just can't get enough of these bowties! I stamped them repeatedly with Pool Party ink on a piece of Pool Party cardstock which I layered on Basic Gray. I adhered a piece of pin-stripe patterned paper from the Well Suited Designer Series Paper to the Pool Party card base. While the Handsomely Suited stamp set has a happy birthday sentiment, I chose to use the one from the Approaching Perfection stamp set. I stamped in Basic Gray ink on Whisper White and layered it on a piece of Basic Gray cardstock.

I wrapped a piece of the Basic Gray twine around the Pool Party layer before adhering it to the card front. I tied it in a big loopy bow. Then, I stamped the bowtie with Tuxedo Black Memento ink on Whisper White cardstock and colored it with Pool Party ink and cut it with the Suite and Tie dies. I added the bowtie over the bow in the twine using Stampin' Dimensionals.

Fabulous Tie Card design

For my final sample, I stamped one of the two straight ties in the stamp set with Tuxedo Black Memento ink on a piece of Whisper White cardstock. I colored the ties using Stampin' Blends in Pool Party, Bermuda Bay, Granny Apple Green, and Highland Heather. This front panel is layered on a Basic Gray card base. 

Like the other two cards, the sentiment for this card is from the Approaching Perfection stamp set. It says: "So what if you're a year older. You're fabulous!" I stamped it with Memento ink on Whisper White cardstock and layered it on Highland Heather cardstock. I placed a layer of Basic Gray cardstock on the card front and added a twine bow. Then, I adhered the sentiment over the bow using Stampin' Dimensionals.
