Dies R Us ~ One For the Men

Hello everyone ~  There's a new challenge over at Dies R Us and this one is to celebrate all the men in our lives.    "One for the Men" is the theme for this two week challenge and I know I can use all the encouragement I can get when it comes to creating masculine cards.


I recently used this die on a feminine card (post here


but that's one of the the things I like about this die, it can be used for any gender and any occasion.  Plus you can use the dies individually.  I can see a card using just the feather in a rainbow of colors.

 Here's a list of dies I used:

You can find all the details of the challenge and join in on the fun here.  
The winner will receive a gift card to Dies R Us. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Terrific card Birgit! I like the vintage look of the scroll with the feather pen and ink over the script-y background paper!

Amazing what paper can do to change a card, Birgit. Great way to mix stamping and dies.

I love both versions. Just a change of paper makes lots of difference.

Fabulous new version, so great for a masculine card! The script background goes so great with the feather and ink. And that scroll is always amazing!
