Celebrate

Spoiler Alert:  Guy Card comin’ up!  One of our friends is a commercial plant grower so I especially enjoy using organic images when doing his birthday cards . . .

 . . . if using ribbons and bows on manly – themed cards bothers you, knots or tag ties can be a great substitute.  You can get the color, textural interest and dimensionality without veering over the line into girly world.  Of course, let us not forget that guys tie their shoelaces into bows, right?  I’m just sayin’ . . .
