Engagement congratulations for Patrick

 The minute I saw this Gecko Galz Man O Man collage set  I knew what I wanted to do for this card.  I had been struggling with making a "guy" card for my daughters fiance, but this image made it easy!  I think he will get a kick out of the humor on the card.  I used Gecko Galz Arabian Dreams paper set on the envelope liner and the background on the card is from the Gecko Galz Neverland paper set.  I added some Stickles to the charm (E for Elizabeth), and the cool looking gold trim is from a Dollar Treasure headband.  I used my Perfect Layers Square to get the image cut square. Enabler Alert!   Gecko Galz has a special going on every week this month!  This week customers who make a purchase will receive the Fantasies digital stamp set (which is gorgeous!) Each week they will have a new exclusive product to give away!
Thanks for looking.  ~Diane

    WOW -- what a fabulous masculine card and I think Patrick will LOVE it (and you for making it for him)!!! You just have such a talent for vintage perfection and most of us dread making male cards -- you nailed it with this one!

    Diane, I really love the inside of that envelope - it is so regal. The card is fantastic and your son-in-law (to be) will love it! It is the perfect masculine card - love that image! I am no good at making masculine cards but this gives me a good reference should I ever have to make one! TFS! ;-)
