No frou-frou creations here today. Check back here soon for that!
Instead, I've got a masculine birthday card for a loved one. It features pretty much ALL snippets and scraps of Stampin' Up! papers, plus one of their images:
Tried to create a strip of 'washi tape' with paper....not sure if it's convincing, but just humor me. ;-) The edges were punched with a Postage Stamp punch to give a torn edge look. Hmmm...
The fern is from Organic Grace. I turned up one bottom corner of the image panel, to try to make it look like I just casually 'stuck' this up on the card with the (failed) washi tape.
As I type this, I am laughing at this attempt of a guy card. Hope it gave you a little chuckle too!

I think it is fabulous! LOVING the fern!!!!!
Most people know I refer to them on my blog as DMC (Dreaded Man Card) I just don't have a knack for it. Yours fabulous!
You got this "man" card just right. The faux Washi tape with the postage edge is so cool and the metal is all man. :-) Good job!
It's definitely perfect for a guy card!! That fern image is just fantastic. I love how intricate it is!
I thought it was washi tape! Love the metal embellies!
That metal cutie on the side and patterned papers are lovely. Washi tape is one of my faves; you got me with this card:)XX
And there is nothing wrong with this attempt for a masculine card. Never, ever underestimate yourselfXXX
I thought that was Washi tape! Love the contrast of the green fern with the browns in the background.
I think the fern and the bit of hardware make a great guy card!! And your paper looks like Washi to me!
We never love our guy cards, do we? However, I really like nature images and browns and polka dots and hardware. That all adds up to I really like your card!
