Oh no! Man Cards!!!

Ok…I know I said I probably wouldn’t post today but that was before the delivery from the UPS Man yesterday!!!  Yes….orders are here so I’ll be dropping them off to you over the next couple of days.
And of course I had to get something new myself…..so I went for the very versatile ‘Cheers to You’ stamp set.  And over on Craft Us Crazy they are looking for Father’s Day / Masculine  creations.  Perfect!
Cheers to You
Father's Day CardNow I’m hoping you can see from the picture that I’ve stamped the pint glasses, coloured them in using my inks and water brush, then cut them out and 3d’d them to the front of the card. 
Cards for men are notoriously difficult…no ribbon, no glitz, no bling! I’ve tried to add interest by giving this card a vintage look and inking the edges.  I do like the simplicity of it tho’ and I’m sure it’s as much as a man can take on a handmade card!! LOL!  What do you reckon…
I will be back with more Father’s Day cards!! One day there will be an answer to the age old question…WHAT DO MEN CARDS LOOK LIKE!!!!  In the meantime I’m also going to enter this in the following :
Delightful Challenges { Father’s Day }
Crafting For All Seasons {Father’s Day }
Delightful Inspiration { Masculine, No Flowers }
Thanks for looking, hope you come back again soonSmile
