Masculine Birthday...

A quick post today. I struggle sometimes with masculine cards. I always want to add ribbon and fun fluffy stuff. Well, I have used this layout before, and really like it. Then I had some Designer Series Paper laying around from the Paper Sampler packs I did. I thought this would be a great way to put them to use. Then instead of ribbon...I just used a strip of Baja Breeze textured card stock. I think textured card stock adds such a fun...well....texture....to the card. :) Helps me not use ribbon if there is some other texture on the card. :) Hehe. Anyway: hope you enjoy!
Both cards are the same...just use different Designer Series Paper from the Manchester pack.
( Look at those NEW YUMMY CHOCOLATE CHIP BRADS!!! I LOVE LOVE them!!! They are the 5/16th size...FYI)
Enjoy! Let me know if you have any questions!
