For the men in life.

I get asked ALL THE TIME for ideas or to borrow stamp sets that are more 'masculine' in nature. We ALL have oodles of beautiful flower stamps and cute creatures but.... My mom has a beautiful set from CTMH for golf as my dad's a HUGE golfer, but I borrowed that set last year for his birthday.

So how the HECK do you make a card for a guy without having 'masculine' stamps???

THIS is where the fun comes in! BE CREATIVE!

OBVIOUSLY I made this card a while ago, hence the Father's Day sentiment, but that can just as obviously be changed to say what the heck ever you want!! Oh the beauty of making your own cards!!

I used one of the WISHES workshop patterns for this sucker and then went back to my Emporium Workshop products to find this ever-so-fantastic Connections stamp set. I stamped a few circles, some 'bursts', cut them out (SO easy with my micro-tip scissors, though it would have been even EASIER with my coluzzle...alas, I was not at home), and pasted them down...wherever!! VOILA!

SO when you're looking to do a card for a guy and you DON'T want to stamp pretty roses or hearts or googly-eyed animals take a peek through your stamps for something a little more abstract - borders, circles, frames, stars, backgrounds, flourishes... You've GOT something in those carrier cases I KNOW you do!! :)
