Cardz4guyz

Need to get cracking on some birthday cards, we have a lot of birthdays in the first three months of the year and most of them are for the males. This one is for one of our Grandsons. I do enjoy making men's cards but I have been making cards for them for over 20 years and sometimes I struggle to do something I haven't done before! I have lots of male orientated stamps but nothing sprung to mind this time. The car is an image from Dover publications and the papers are some old Graphic45. Now I have to start on a card for a great grandson who is sixteen next week and I don't have a clue  . I'm entering this on Caz's new challenge , hopefully this challenge will give us lots of inspiration for male cards.

I've just noticed it looks like the car is flying through the air! need to put some shadow underneath to "ground" it  -

  1. Hello Joan, Your card is wonderful, I'm loving the vintage background and the very elegant car. I have found for 16yr olds you can't go much wrong with musical instruments or something related to music. I do hope we can give you lots of ideas for males in the future. I am so pleased you found us here at Cardz4Guyz and that we will see you often. Hope your well. Lots of love. Caz
