Bless his heart! My father-in-law still insists on sending me birthday money every year, despite my insistence that a card would be plenty. Here's the masculine thank you card he received in return for his thoughtfulness and generosity.
My favorite masculine cards are simple with clean lines. Here's a link to bunches of my previously posted "man" cards. - A touch of ribbon and paper piercing add the right touch of jazz. Of course, a touch of metal with the Jumbo Silver Brad fits in, too.
- This stripe from Stampin' Up!'s Nouveau Chic Designer Paper is the perfect amount of pattern. Think "neck tie" when looking for an appropriate design.

Great colors for a masculine card. I always have problems coming up with color combinations for a masculine. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful card, Mary! I love the colors!
Love this card, Mary! Circle Circus looks great with this DSP! Clean and simple, yet so classy! Love it!
How do you do this?! This card is a perfect masculine card. I love the color combo and the way you used the Circle Circus set.
Another perfect masculine card!
I LOVE the necktie comment–I hadn’t thought of that, but it’s a great guideline when making a masculine card. 🙂
