On The Move

Hi, I have got a lot of  milestone birthdays this year.  Two of them are female 40th  which are easy peasy! However, I also have two male 40th  and two male 70th birthdays which I will find far from easy.  This  one is not one  of the milestone ones, but one of my nephews celebrates his  birthday this week so this is a trial run, as it were! Oh I do prefer cards for ladies, there is so much choice! I guess there is choice for men too but I'm just not good at putting them together.

My Card

Click on image to enlarge picture

The stamps are all from Kaiser Kraft  "On The Move" which is ideal for men as it features tyre tracks, various wheels and an aeroplane too, as well as the car and banner. The backing paper is from K & Company "Life's Journey " pad.

Well that's  it from me today. Hope you are all enjoying your weekend!

love and hugs from Christine xx

    Good Morning Christine, What an excellent choice of card. I love the stamps and have taken note of them as I struggle a lot with male cards too. Have a good day. Hugs Rita xx

    Love your layout and perfect male card. I am finding it much easier to do male cards now that I have more suitable stash for it, especially the embossing folders and die-cutters. xx Flora

    I think lots of us struggle with male cards Christine, this one is super, love it. The ones I make always seem to feature a bloke asleep either in a chair or hammock lol.
    Cheers,

    You've created a great male card here Christine, but they do take some thinking about, although there are now a lot more male stamps and papers around which does help. Dee x

    I think your card is lovely christine. I especially like the coloured background map and car image.
    I too am not that good at making male cards but had to make one for my DT post for Penny Black and More this month. I would really like you to join in with our challenge this month and you also have a chance to win one of several great craft prizes.

    Lovely card for a male. I know exactly what you mean about the girl cards, but I think it is practice, you need a "run" so to speak at doing some male cards!
    Thanks so much for sharing with us at Penny Black & More this month.
