Hello ladies.. thank you for swinging by today!
Well i would like to share a little story about my card.
So, i pick this handsome guy from the new Whiff Of Joy City Girl Collection 2 and could not wait to make a card with him. Than he is on my desk and my head is blank :-(
Finally decide on the papers i want to use and the layout comes together. I actually like the card!
Proud of myself – i pulled it off.. show the card to my husband and he finds the layout and the card boring. WHAAAT???!
Okay… i was kind of speechless and upset… he does not like flowers, thought the loop with the ribbon is a bit different… but oh well. I know that with all the cards i make each week or months.. they can not all be great and to every ones likes but i was kind of expecting a little more support and praise from my own husband.:-)

Men....pfft! In no way is this boring. I really like the paper layering and the different patterns and the stitching is the perfec finishing touch.
Well, I love it Claudia! I think you made fabulous paper choices and and I love the stitching! Your layout is super and the ribbon treatment is perfect!

Hahaha - yes, husbands! At least your's had an opinion, if not what you were after! Mine says "Oh, look at that" for every card. Sigh. So now I don't ask him!

Neat card! Great idea for a guy!
I love the card! it's hard to do a guy card, and always easy to do a girl card :) you have done a fabulous job Claudia!, I love it :) Hugs Hayley
I think it's fabulous! I try not to ask my husbands advice anymore on my projects. He always has something he doesn't like and it always bums me out.

No offense to your dear hubby, Sweetie, but men don't know what they are talking about. How many men can actually put an outfit together without OUR help????? Your card is awesome, absolutely priceless!
Claudia this card is great! I love the papers, the stitching and the fabulous ribbon and button!

I love the card and cannot think of anyway that you could have made it any more exciting. Maybe your husband was just having a bad day ;)!!

Love the loop detail :)

Gorgeous card - I really like the papers you used!
Husbands! What do they know about the speciality of cardmaking? I always make the same mistake and ask my really very supporting hubby for his opinion and regret it the same moment.
The card is everything but NOT BORING, I like it really very much though I would not have given him a blue jacket, I would have coloured the jeans in blue.
Also wirklich!!! Da hat sich dein Mann aber ganz schön geirrt...haha aber das kommt ja bei Männern öfter vor ;)
Das Layout ist einmalig, und perfekt für eine Männerkarte. All die Details runden das Gesamtbild super ab. Deine Coloration sit wieder einmal sensationell.
Ich hoffe ihr habt einen schönen Urlaub!!!
