Hi friends. I’m sneaking in today with a masculine birthday card which is the most difficult thing for me to do. I LOVE bows and flowers, wispy feminine touches and lots of embellishments and I have large amounts of anxiety when I need to do a card for a man. But, I think this works. AND… I was able to sneak in some ribbon from the December Ribbon Club Assortment from Really Reasonable Ribbon!

The December Ribbon Club Assortment is a winter themed collection of ribbon. It contains 9 styles and a total of 17 yards of ribbon and crochet lace. Each monthly assortment is a color or holiday themed collection of ribbon. What a fun way to build your ribbon stash and try new ribbon styles.
I like to keep it clean and simple when I make cards for men. They just don’t appreciate all the do-dads that we women like. (What’s WRONG with them?? hahaha)
I did a double layer of ribbon across the middle of the card under the sentiment.
I also added a strip of ribbon vertically and I dovetailed the bottom.
This is a perfect way to use up some ribbon scraps and as a bonus, the card is super flat for mailing.
