Masculine Birthday

Greetings from Rocky Top! What an exciting night! Tennessee Volunteers (VOLS) just beat Ohio State and advanced to the Elite 8 in men's basketball! It is their first trip ever to this stage in the tournament! "I say I'm proud to be...a Tennessee VOL!!"

I thought it only fitting to share a masculine birthday card with you in celebration! As you may have noticed, I am loving working with the Kraft card stock! It is such a terrific background for so many colors! I embossed the card base with a Cuttlebug folder and sanded it just a little. I added the sentiment and the ribbon and done! Simple, yes....clean, yes....masculine, yes...Yep, I am done with this one!

Most of the men I send cards to only look at them once, say that's nice and put it down somewhere never to be seen again...LOL! Therefore, I see no reason to "glam it up" very much! The important thing is they were remembered and thought of enough to send a card, don't you think?

I am going to go clean up the mess I made now when the VOLS won, so, I will be back later! Blessings abound in Tennessee!! Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

Blessings to you,
Vicki
