Hi all! I struggle with masculine birthday cards, and thought this Gerda Steiner stamp would be a useful one to have. My brother and brother-in-law and Greg all have birthdays pretty close to each other so they all got variations of this card! I hadn't quite intended to add the clouds originally, but had made a rubbish attempt to draw some 'go faster' lines in the sky to give the car some movement, and the clouds and stars were a good cover up LOL
Coloured with polychromos; clear gloss added to the window and their glasses.
Snippets Playground #499 - my clouds were cut from leftover white card after cutting my card base
Sparkles challenge #184 - monochrome blue
Addicted to Stamps #485 - dies/stencils

We survived Storm Eowyn unscathed, but it brought down a LOT of trees round the country. I guess it was a good job they didn't have their leaves yet or it would have been a whole lot worse! We have a lovely walk down through our estate that we do most days so it was very sad to see 10 trees down in the one spot, they would have been 50+ years old. I wonder if it was the same gust of wind felled them all at the same time. It was definitely a good call for the government to request that folk stayed home that day!

What a great masculine card! I especially love that dog with the big tongue hanging out. he he I think your clouds look super, and add some dimension, too. I also struggle with masculine cards. I made a batch of them this week, just to have some for family members and to donate. When I find a layout I like, I try to make multiples to ease my masculine cardmaking pain. lol
What a fun card for your masculine birthdays. Good way to use up some white snippets to cover the errors!
Such a shame about the trees - but I'm glad you survived the storm.
Thanks for coming to play in the Snippets Playground. See you up in the treehouse for Breakfast Club shortly. xxx
What a great "man" card Lynne. Pleased that you survived the storm but I'm dreadfully sad for the trees x

LOVE your card Lynne! Such a happy pair of pooches - and there's no such thing as 'errors' when cardmaking, Happy Accidents instead! Great save!
