Manly Cards

I saw an adorable card, over on Mary Fish's blog that showed a black satin ribbon tied in a tie like today's card. I have a masculine card class at my home tomorrow night, and I was inspired by Mary's cute card here.

I quickly realized that I do not know how to tie a man's tie.. So I googled it and found this awesome site. http://www.tie-a-tie.net.

Then, I was off and running. I think the number one rule for "guy" cards is to keep the embellishments to a minimum. My husband always says... what did you use that for??? it's too much!!! So ~ I take his advice when creating manly inspired cards..

So ~ What do you think about this? Do you think my class will like this one tomorrow night? If you would like to join us just pop me an email at e.selene@verizon.net.

Rubbah hugs and have a great Wednesday
