I never seem to have a masculine birthday card when I need one. The Inkspirational Challenge: Cards for Guys came at just the right time because I needed one for a good friend whose birthday is this week. I pulled out two old favorites which I think go together perfectly: Pinkfresh Studio’s Gatsby Die Set and The Greetery’s Everyday Labels for the sentiment.

It’s a quick card to put together. Photographing it was a bigger hassel since Gold Mirror cardstock because of the gold mirror cardstock. I chose a lovely textured cardstock for the card base.

You can see it a little better here.
This is off to Inkspirational and Seize the Birthday: Anything Goes.


Just WOW!! Yes, very retro, very au courant …
what a wonderful clean masculine design Karen! Love the Gatsby piece in the gold and black and your sentiment fits it perfectly! Thanks for joining us at Inkspirational: For the Guys! Julia xx
