Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #224 - Masculine

Christmas is almost here!  It's truly my favorite time of year - guess that's why I LOVE making Christmas cards all year round :)  I'm excited to be this week's challenge host at Merry Monday Christmas Card challenge!!  My challenge:  Create a Christmas Card suitable for a guy!


 For my card, I used a stamp/die set from Papertrey Ink: Cozy Christmas which is so much fun to play with!  I used a plaid pattern paper for the background (are you just lovin' all the plaids out this year!) and framed the stamped/die cut thermos images with My Favorite Things stitched rectangle frame die cut.  The little sprigs are a die from Concord & 9th - Take a Bough.
 

Masculine cards can be a challenge and if you need a little inspiration, be sure to see the amazing cards the rest of the Design Team has to share!

  5. Your plaids and greenery are perfect for a masculine Christmas Card and I am imagining something warm to drink inside those thermoses.

  6. Love that plaid and I remember when all the guys carried a thermos. Now I guess it's styrofoam cups. Times change....Thanks for bringing back memories.
