Question advice on masculine cricut cart

Hi...

Hubby just purchased me the create and I have purchased 2 carts but they are very elegant and now I need a masculine cart to make cards with...
Any suggestions??? Please pass on any info on carts you have used to make cards for DH's and fathers...all the special men in your life...I realize there must be a good cart for those type cards.

Thanks Sheena

Sheena....If I'm sending a card for a sympathy or to someone/man I don't know very well, I choose non-descript images. For instance I tend to use Accent Essentials, Home Accents, Home Decor and Storybook. I choose designs that are just swirls or images that you would stamp in just a basic neutral color. There are many other cartridges that have much the same images on them also.

If it were a relative I knew well, then I would be more specific to what ever their taste or interest is. I try to personalize the cards I send to others except for sympathy cards, those have a non descript image.

For a general greeting, animals (not cartoon) can work well also.

There are a few Cricut Lite carts (available only at Walmart) that are masculine. Try:
Wildlife
Handyman
Dude (young images)
Block Party (one I want to get)
Billionaire
The carts don't come with the full image book, but do show all the images and cutting pieces in order. Hope this helps.

Thanks I did look at Wal-Mart at Hanyman and wildlife but neither seemed to fit the bill for more then 1 man in my life- was really hoping to find one just very masculine in general.
I own Storybook but it just too elegant for my family of Bikers- that also love to hunt and fish.
