Men Cards :(

Is it just me, or are men's cards sooooooo much harder to make than women's? When I have a list of crafty things to do, I tend to leave these until the end because they are just so hard! However, over the past couple of days, I have made two.

This one is for our friend Ian who is having a surprise 50th birthday party at the beginning of July (hope he doesn't stumble across my blog by accident or it won't be much of a surprise!!!!)


The second one is for my brother who delights in being 4 years younger than me and always buys me rude birthday cards (don't you love little brothers?) I decided to prepare him for his big birthday in two years time when he will once again receive birthday cards with numbers!


Hope you are having a lovely weekend!

  1. Fab cards Carole! Yes, male cards really do take that little bit more thought, it's really not so easy when you can't just pop on something sparkly, or a heart or flower, lol!

    We've also been invited to a fany dress 50th birthday party tonight, but as Kevin's been working all day and has only just come home, and had'nt organised a baby sitter, let alone a fancy dress outfit! we won't be going.
    I've just popped in some beautiful scented stock flowers, bottle of wine and ofcourse a handmade card, so hopefully we'll be forgiven :)

    Big Hugs!
