Going Masculine at Sugar Creek Hollow



Welcome to another Sensational Saturday at Sugar Creek Hollow. This
week our challenge to you is to MAKE IT
MASCULINE
.

Cards for the men in your life are always needed so now is the time to
make a vintage, shabby chic or primitive creation that you can be sure
they will appreciate.

We will be choosing a random winner and that person will receive a
winner's badge to display on her blog and a digi of our choice. In
addition, the Design Team will choose one project as Card of the Week
and the creator will receive a badge to display and will be in the
running for a Guest Designer spot.

As many of you know, Rick and I are taking care of his Mother, who is now bed fast with Alzheimer's, and I am so proud of him and the work and help that he gives me each and every day. He has such an unselfish, honest personality, so I wanted to create something to give him so that he knows how much I love and appreciate him. This seemed like the perfect time. I used a variety of images and will list them in my card details if you are interested. I love these Bo Bunny Timepiece design papers.

After giving it to him with a personal note, I told him that it was for this week's challenge.....his comment----you didn't take a picture of what you wrote did you???? So sweet.
Now go to Sugar Creek Hollow and see what the girls have created, you won't be disappointed.
Our designers have created some great masculine cards for your
inspiration. For details on each card just click on the designer's name
and you will be taken to their blog.

Wonderful masculine card, Patti! The design is great, inside and out! Hope you are doing well! I'll miss being able to get together with everyone up there, even if it wasn't often!

Great card, love the "guy" feel, such a great job with that, something that you can tell I can't do. Sounds like you have quite the hubby and a real keeper :)

Super card, love the guy feel to it. The tin looking embossing rectangle looks very cool.
