Masculine

 

 Hello Monday my friends! And welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Thank you for joining us for the  Not A Card  Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is: MASCULINE

I took the opportune to make birthday cards for my sons with this challenge.

I like how no the big red circles make this guy pop. I stamped him and fussy cut him. In the photo above, did you see the sneaky way I got his age in?

The wish big and balloons emphasize birthdays. I used colored pencils for the balloons.

Inside the cards is the BIG happy birthday...

I used colored pencils to fill in the images on both cards. I like the statement Slimline cards make. And, it was fun to decorate the envelopes to go with their cards.

I just had to doodle in some gears around my son's name on the envelope.
