Squigglefly Challenge 3113 - Masculine Card


Mondays is always a new challenge at the Squigglefly Challenge blog and today Rhonda's Rowdy Rascals is handing down a challenge to make a masculine card!  Masculine cards are not the easiest thing for me.  I made this card for my sweet DH, Jim, he is just the most awesome man and I love him dearly.  I can write this here because he doesn't read my blog and won't know I'm gushing over him!!  When I saw this image from Diana Garrison titled You Have My Heart, I knew I would make a card for Jim.

I hope you join us for this challenge - because - we all need some masculine cards in our stash!

Card Recipe:
