Masculine Birthday Cards
Hello everyone! I am super excited to be a guest designer at 3 Girl JAM today! They have a lot of fun ribbons and flair too. Without further ado, here is the card that I created using their yummy Coffee Jute Twine.
I always seem to struggle with guy cards. Sometimes it is best to keep things simple and let the paper and sentiment do the talking. All the papers I used on these cards are from DCWV's Guy Stack. I LOVE that stack. It is perfectly masculine. Here is a second card I made just using different paper combinations.
A close-up of the lacing and eyelets.
Have a wonderfully crafty day!
