FMS525 ... Masculine Card

Happy Thursday!  It is a gloomy day here today, a perfect day to hang out in the craft room.  I created this masculine card for this week's Freshly Made Sketches challenge:

I'm currently working on masculine birthday cards and Father's Day cards, so I can have them ready ahead of time.  When I saw the lines going down, I immediately envisioned suspenders, so that's the route I went with.

Paper:  All from Recollections (Michaels)

Accessories:  All images cut with the Cricut Maker

FMS524 ... Easter Card

Happy Saturday!  Today's card is a special one by the current Freshly Made Sketches challenge.
