I am seriously lacking in male cards in my stock, so I have decided to do something about it. I love cogs, so this was a starting place. Found ages ago a fantastic paper can't remember who makes it but excellent cogs on it and the strips etc brilliant. So I made a heap of cards with this theme in mind. I die cut all the cogs from a Sizzix Die and painted them with acrylic paint to match. So this is the start of the replacement collection of male cards, the same paper just different layouts for each.....
Again fitting in with minimal waste these were all made with 2 sheets of paper, 1 being cogs the other being the strips and reverse side brown cogs, the numbers strip was the reverse side of the manufacturer hence now why I can't tell you who it is. LOL......

Love your card - great colours. I always find male cards so hard to make - but thank goodness for steampunk and grunge! ...Gill x
Your male cards are fab. Love the papers and cogs. x
Hi Eliza
These are all wonderful.
Love the colour combo very much and your clever layouts.
Love Jules xx
Oooh these are nice - always handy to keep mens cards in isnt it! I also love all your gelli plate stuff on the previous posts - am seriously thinking about getting one now...
Ooh, love 'em! That is something I am seriously lacking as well...male cards. Hmmm, and I have some awesome new Kaisercraft stamps that I could make some with, too...challenge accepted! (Do you ever watch How I Met Your Mother? Hilarious show!) Great great cards, thanks for the inspiration! :)
