Cards for Men

I like coming up with ideas for men's cards...sometimes it's tough...so for this swap over on SCS...i chose to do a birthday card and an any occasion card...

Men's Birthday
Paper: more mustard..cajun craze..natural white..paper studios dsp
Ink: night of navy
Stamps: lexicon of love - celebrate

For the any occasion card i created my own sentiment and DP...leaving the inside blank so "she can say" whatever "she" wants!!

Men's Any Occasion
Paper: yo-yo yellow..basic black..? mark dp..whisper white
Ink: memento black..SU markers..printer
Stamp: Art Impressions Norm

and the crap room is almost shoveled out and re-re-reorganised...yeah for someone who hates to change things around this is one room i seem to consistently change...go figure..
