Hi and welcome. Today I’m showing two cards that are intended for two great guys. A friend asked me to create two cards for his son’s birthdays.

masculine birthday card
FOR MY BROTHER
Hi and welcome! My brother has a birthday coming up next month, so after much thought, I created this card for him. The Textured Notes Bundle(165556) is my go-to for masculine style cards and I’m pretty sure that he will like this. I started by stamping the leafy images on a 4-1/4″x5-1/2″ piece of Basic […]
