Hello~
Today I have a masculine birthday card to share. Masculine cards are a close second to sympathy cards when it comes with struggling in the creative process. I love to add buttons, bows or rhinestones, so I have to sit on my hands to make a CAS card for a guy! I have referred to them in the past as the dreaded man card!!!
Here is a man card to share with you today.
I started with Baja Breeze card base found in my stash. Next I added a panel that I repeat stamped the classic car and sentiment in Not Quite Navy. I die cut the mat stack 1 in Stampin' UP! Kraft (retired) and By The Numbers dies and added to the center panel. Last I completed the card by stamping the Happy Birthday sentiment on Whisper White card stock and trimmed to a banner.

Simple yes, but a classic!

Lovely to see a man's card for a change.
I love your CAS design! The colors are perfect, and love that background paper - beautiful! You've accomplished an awesome masculine card!
I love how you called it "the dreaded man card"....that's hilarious and totally true! It's so hard not to do frilly, but you did a great job on this one. I bet if you added bling, the guy wouldn't even know! :) Thank you for joining us at Hand Stamped Sentiments.
A GREAT masculine card! Love all those old cars in the background, and the big die cut numbers. I need that die set.
Fabulous masculine design. Love how you personalized it with the "80"!
Well, you may dread making them but it turned out fabulously!
Awesome card, Tammy! My dad would love this set. ;)
