QUICK & EASY BIRTHDAY CARDS - FOR GUYS!

When September and October roll around, I know I need to get cracking on a whole slew of birthday cards for family members. When times a tickin', I need to come up with something quick and easy. This can be even more difficult for me when it comes to male birthday cards. That's when I lean on a lot of patterned paper and simple stamping. So.....here's a couple cards I came up with that I think will fit the bill:
Supplies for this card include:

Once again, the patterned paper is my life-saver!! Thanks for taking a look. I truly hope you are inspired!

  1. They certainly fit the bill for male birthday cards, Theresa! What I want to know is: how did you get the perfect hexagon shapes? Did you cut it yourself? Then you have a surgeons grip:)

    1. Hi Linda! The hexagons are actually printed on the patterned paper.It's just a sheet of 6x6 paper that I trimmed to the width I needed, then just cut the one edge of the hexagons. I'm way too lazy to cut out individual hexagons! :D

      Thanks for looking!!

  2. They both turned out great! I always struggle with "Male" cards, but you sure made these look like it should be easy! :)
