February 2022 Blog-Masculine Birthday Card


Hello, Friends! 

This card was designed for my February Creative Card Class. We have not made a masculine birthday card in some time. I find it difficult to come up with masculine card ideas. Once I started thought, I had three cards masculine birthday cards designed in no time. 

This card was my favorite and is easy to make. I hope you will give it a try.

If you do not have a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and would like one. I hope you will consider me. To purchase Stampin' UP! products from me, clink on the shop link above or the catalogs to the right and it will take you to my Stampin' Up! store. 

I wish you all a great February! I look forward to creating and blogging March's card.

Until then stay well! Thank you for stopping by my blog.
