Prickley Pear Monday Share!

Hello everyone!

I am super excited to share with you my card today. It was made for a special friend who is having a tough time with his marriage and I wanted to find a way to cheer him up a little and to know that he has people out there thinking of him when it seems his whole world has come crashing down.

So, that led me to come to the realization that I have to make a MASCULINE card. Ugh, the dreaded word. Like so many of you, I have a tough time making cards for males. Slim to no embellishments, earthy colors, NO FLOWERS! What's a girl to do?!

I settled on some old DCWV Green Stack papers as well as a Studio Calico wood veneer star embellishment.  I used the PPRS Find What You Seek red rubber stamp.Super quick, super simple, and best of all, super masculine!



Not too shabby, right? I also have another project I'm working on that I hope to post later this week. I don't want to spill the beans on what it is, so you will just have to stay tuned!


Thanks for stopping by and I'll see you soon!

Hugs,
A

  1. I seriously despise making "boy" cards. I just did one (and posted about it) and the more I look at it, the more I think it would be perfect for a GIRL. LOL!

    Your card is perfectly manly and I hope it cheers your friend right up!
