Masculine Birthday

Happy Saturday Everyone!
Sorry I haven't had anything new to share with you for several days ... been busy with 'life' ...
you know how that is!  LOL!

Anyways ... here's a couple cards I created back in February that I hadn't shared on my blog yet.  Hope you like them!  Masculine cards are always difficult to make and I think this design is quick, easy and suitable for just about any occasion!  Just need to change the sentiment to suit your needs.






 I'm working on a variety of cards for upcoming shows at the end of the month and of course I'm always in need of birthday cards for all ages.  I try to keep the masculine cards a little more 'subtle' than the ladies cards. 

For both of today's cards I've simply sponged ink in various monochromatic colors for the background then over stamped with a tree stamp for a silhouette.  You can 'fancy it up' a bit if you like by adding a design paper background panel and some faux stitching as seen on my 2nd card.

Yep, I have two shows at the end of the month ... one on the 20th and one on the 30th.
I'm working on a few other 'goodies' for the shows but I really need to get busy on my cards.  It's always good to have more than you need in various styles.  I struggle with the CAS design style but might give it another try to add to my sale boxes.

Hope you have a great weekend.
I'll sure be glad when Spring REALLY breaks ... my poor budding plants are 
fearful of what the weather man is predicting for the next week.  Uugh!
As always . . .
