Welcome to our From the Heart Stamps blog hop. Our theme this month is “One for the Guys”. I so often find myself making cards for the girls in my life, that it was fun to pull out the masculine papers and images.
Our designers are showcasing lots of awesome inspiration so enjoy!! AND as you hop along, please leave a comment on each entry. One random commenter will be selected on each blog to win the image that the designer used. [MEANING the winner here gets Birdbrain Brew] And additionally, one commenter on the From the Heart Stamps blog will be selected to win a $5 gift voucher to the store!

This is so fabulous! Totally adore the die cut you have used for the cardstock under the digi. Really reminds one of a bear bottle cap!
