Masculine cards.....
I always dread when I have to make a masculine birthday card. So I was glad to have found something that would work.
This card was made for my brother-in-law. He is in the Navy, so I thought this would be fitting.
I used the trapezoid card base from SVG Cutting Files as well as Sailor Squaredy Cat and cut them on my Cricut Explore. The banner was also cut on the Explore. I added the sequins to give it a finished look.
I love how it came out.
Thanks for stopping by.

I have been creating cards and party decorations for over two years now. And even though I am still learning, I was convinced by my sister and friends to start a blog and show the items I have created.
I decided to try my hand at making a shaker card. After watching a few tutorials and then having to scrap the first attempt (must remember to take the Post-it tape off the stamp), I must say I am fairly pleased with the way it turned out.
This card is for my mother in law. Her birthday just happens to be the day before mine.
-
I made a top folding A2 card and cut a 3" circle out of the center.
- The green ring was cut on my Cricut Explore by welding two circles together, one at 2.95" and 3.25".
- The clear window was also cut on my Explore at 3.4".
