male birthday
Yesterday's Inspiration and Themes Challenge at In Love With Stamping is men - or rather to make a card for a man, not easy is it?!
I like this colour combo for masculine cards - Bashful Blue, Choc Chip and Very Vanilla. The star from the In the Stars set was stamped in Chocolate Chip ink and punched out with the star punch - I love that it co-ordinates perfectly with this stamp...so easy!
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Hi Kate. Love this card so much you've persuaded me that I need that Cuttlebug Embossing folder! Colour combo is brill!!!!!! Belinda x
Wow Kate, I love this card - Like most people I really struggle with male cards. I actually ordered this set this week with male cards in mind. Can't wait for it to arrive ;0)
Hi Kate,
gorgeous card - love the colours and layout. I need to use In the stars more - and this is a good inspiration to do so.
Thanks

Effortlesly stylish Kate - love that embossing folder you used - strained my eyes trying to work out what is was then just read your ingredients lol Realy enjoyed out chat this evening (apologies for my MADhouse)still can't get over Nicole's email *big grin* - how's the ice-cream? Hugs, Steph XOXO
There's an award on my blog for you xxx
Lovely card Kate, good layout for men or them pesky teenagers! Looking forward to my parcel ;)
Great birthday card for a male! Love that embossed background, it really works well with the stars.
Oooh, love this... and I have the star punch and am planning to get the Star set with my SAB freebies. Consider yourself potentially CASEd!
Love the card Kate! Great male card. I've just recently bought this stamp set, so thanks for sharing and inspiring me.
Have a good Sunday.

Great man's card Kate. Love the paper piercing - I'm using that so often at the moment, lol. The colour combo is just right and I like the use of the linen thread. Sara xx
Perfect for a manly/teenager card. You can't go wrong with stars for them can you. lol Really lovely colours too - think I'm going to try that colour combo myself.
