Masculine Card

OK CONFESSION TIME:

I can not create masculine cards...my brain locks up kind of like my computer....no bling no stickles no girlie boas....it all just does not compute...

So with no frills here is my man card...I must say it is not my favorite :( on a positive note I do LOOOOOVE the tiny staples from my tiny attacher by Tim Holz and the EXTRA LARGE sentiment from My Pink Stamper's fabulous new release Birthday Crazy ...the great paper is from DCWV and I used lots of distress ink from Timmy Holz on this card... AND for the first time EVER...for me Indie Art Cartridge, which I really like and don't know whay I haven't used before??!? YAY rediscovering a cart!!! LOL I hope you are all having a super duper fabulous Tuesday {{HUGS}}~Raechel

Believe

I recently (on Easter Sunday) lost my Papa to cancer. I am broken hearted by the loss of a great man! I spent the last week and a half of my Papa's precious life at his side...I will forever cherish EVERY moment I spent with him, if any of you have a loved please don't miss precious moments with them. I pray you all are strong and continue to fight. My Papa fought till he took his last breath I will join the fight for the cure...Please do all you can to help find a cure of any and all types of cancer.

YAY! Today is my Birthday!!! I am now 37 years old...WOW I totally remember being a kid of 14 thinking HOLY COW 35 is OLD!!! I was obviously a completely deranged teenager! 37...wow that's young...right?!?

This card is super simple but here's the ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS part about it...I SERIOULSY made it in 5 minutes!!! I hope you're all totally impressed with me because that is 100% a FIRST for me! I have NEVER made a card in 5 minutes! I feel as though I have accomplished something great and I wanted to share it with you all! LOL! I used the amazing My Pink Stamper's newest set of stamps on this super quick but still completely cute card...this sentiment is off the Birthday Crazy set, which I must say I LOVE! I also used an animal print paper pack from Michaels Recollections set...I hope everyone thinks its cute especially given the 5 minute start to finish method :)
