Question Masculine Birthday Card Help

Ok, so I HATE to make masculine cards. I have my monthly card swap coming up and made some cards. Can you please give me your honest opinion as I HATE to make masculine cards.........should I say that again :-D They are stamped on the inside with a happy birthday but I didn't feel like taking a picture of the inside because.........you guess it, I HATE to make masculine cards! You can take a look at them in the SCS gallery HERE.

Default Got a template?

I thought they were great... I think men's cards are less fun because they don't really appreciate them. I'm sure there are some DH's out there who do, but by and large.....

Do you have a template for the card? Where did you put the birthday greeting?

I would like to make something similar for a scrapbook page of my son's groomsmen/ringbearers being fitted for their tuxes.

Smile Thanks!

Thanks for all your kind words! I got requests for a template however I threw together a tutorial as I am getting ready to go out of town. I posted it on SCS share a tutorial on page 18 if the link doesn't work. I put the greeting on the inside on the shirt. I agree men don't appreciate them as much as we do! Here's the link to the tutorial and again thank you!

It's funny because my sister showed them to a friend of her's and now she wants me to do them for her fiance's bachelor party......NICE! Just what I wanted! Thanks again! I love your work by the way, it's wonderful! Welcome to blogging. I added you to my list of favorite blogs on my site!
