"YOU'RE THE MAN" MASCULINE CARD MINI SERIES

Hello my crafty friends! For today's masculine card, I've used Bump in the Night, and Cardz TV Stamps "You're the Man" and "It's All About You". The guys in my family love to get a silly, fun card, so they should love this one! 




I used papers from Echo Park and an Action Wobble, and found them both at The Royal Castle Shoppe Facebook Group. Theresa, The Scrapbooking Queen has some wonderful paper pads, embellishments, adhesives, etc in her Royal Shoppe! It's a private group, by invitation, but Theresa said I could share the link with you. When you click on the link below, asked to be added to the group, and start shopping! Make sure you tell Theresa that Mary sent you!
