This week a friend is celebrating his birthday and I thought you might like to see the birthday card I created for him. I chose my Truly Tailored bundle and my Stitched Shapes framelits to create his card, along with colors I prefer to use for masculine birthday cards:
My goal is sharing this card is to show that you don't need a lot of products to create a masculine birthday card and that it takes just a few minutes to create one too. I feel that the layout is also a fun way to rock a masculine card idea and several punches from scraps takes no time at all.
Don't miss a full list of supplies and my video tutorial underneath the card photo below. And if you want to order the Truly Tailored bundle before it retires on May 31st, click here to link over to my Online Store.
I angled the photo so you can have a peek at the inside of my card - using another Always Artichoke punched shape:

Thanks Mother of 3! If you don't have this awesome punch, try using a different shaped punch you have on hand. The result will be a bit different but will still create a cool background on your card.

I love this! Masculine cards aren't the easiest thing to make. I am often a bit stumped when it comes to making cards for men. Pinned.
