  1. Oh my gosh, Mary, WOW!! this is an incredibly gorgeous masculine card, You are right, masculine cards can be dull because we’re afraid to embellish them too much but this is just amazing, stylish and fun.
    Love all the pops of color you got from the DSP, and the way you created the “exhaust” is totally genius.
    Thank you for sharing, off to pinning.
    XO

  2. This is a great card for any age.! Would be great for my grandson who just got his learners permit to drive. Love it!

    • let’s hope he doesn’t produce this much exhaust! love that it’s a good match for him!

  3. Fantastic compilation! It is great that you were able to give it a lot of interest with the addition of the orange and colored DSP. TFS.

    • Masculine cards can look kind of flat in simply neutrals and color offers that perfect pop. Thanks for sharing, Juanita.

  4. Love this really cute card from this wonderful masculine set. I love the exhaust stamp and the crumb cake base. Have a great day, Mary.

    • I think you could use the “exhaust” stamp in lots of ways to build a background. Beautiful in colors, too, right?

  5. Didn’t get this set…..and thinking I might have made a mistake on passing it up. GREAT card my friend.

    • If you are going to just get one thing, I suggest the designer paper. Very versatile!

  6. A gorgeous card, Mary! I love that it’s masculine through-and-through but still celebrates wonderful colors. Such a great layout for a wonderful card!

  7. Love the carry-over of the car image to the envelope liner! Great card, Mary!
