Can't forget those guys***


I have a rash of birthdays for guys this month so I decided to make a few cards all out of my bit bin.

I used a gate fold card... 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" , scored at 2 1/8" on either side. I found all kinds of bit to use on the panels. I used the card horizontally instead of vertically. The image is a PTI stamp from the Masculine Motifs set, inked in Sepia archival ink. A few co-ordinating dew drops were added to the bottom of the panel.
I love bit bin cards.
Have a fabulous day and thanks for stopping in***

These are fantastic--and perfect for guys! I find men so much harder to craft (and buy) for than women, so it's always good to get some new ideas!
Have a great weekend! I hope it's a bit warmer there than it is here!!
