One never has enough Manly Cards on hand for 
those special guys in our life. 

In a recent challenge with some friends, we decided to dig deep into our creativity and begin a new stash of Manly Cards.  
Above are the two that I made for the challenge.  The one on the left, I cased from Laura Erickson on Kay Kalthoff's Blog (see original www.stampingtoshare.com ).  I didn't stray from the original design because I just loved it the way it was designed.... 
so way to go Laura and Kay!!!
(Inks, paper and stamps used for the card on the left are from Stampin'Up! The Open Sea, Gorgeous Grunge and Work of Art)

As I receive the others from my fellow crafters, I will post for your enjoyment.

One of the most wonderful aspects of sharing our work on blogs and websites is that it gives inspiration to other stampers and scrapbookers who may be having an "artist's block".  To see what others are doing can open up that block and wonderful other inspirations evolve.
