Masculine cards are always a challenge for me. I love to create cards that include butterflies, ribbons, pearls, swirls etc - all the girly stuff, but I need more masculine cards in my stash to send out.

I apologize for the dark photo but I took the picture at the end of the day when the sunlight was not in the right position through my kitchen window.
Thanks for dropping in!

ReplyDeleteI like this handsome card. The edge punch is pretty but in a manly sort of way.
ReplyDeleteFabulous card. Love the clean lines and earthy shades. Thanks for playing Mojo!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, Sarah, the neutrals really add an elegance to this card! I think you nailed the masculine thing also, I have a hard time with that as well. Practice, practice!
