ALL ABOUT THE GUYS BLOG HOP



I think it's that time of year when all us wives lose our husbands to the NCAA and NFL. Football is playing all weekend long.  Of course that leave more time for us to gather and play with crafts.  So I think it's great that Erica at My Cricut Craft Room is holding a blog hop that's All about the guys. 

I'm stop number six on your hop today.  You should have come from KIMBERLY at Scrapping Rookie 

Today's card is one for my son.  He is currently attending college at Idaho State University and taking auto tech classes.  He has always taken his toy cars apart and put them back together.  About four years ago our garage became the local spot for all our family and friends to bring their cars that weren't running just right.   


I cut the tools from the Lite Handyman Cricut Cartridge at 2.  The tag is a pre-cut from CTMH.  The stamp is from A Muse Studio, Tool-rific. The screws are small brads I picked up at the Expo last weekend.  The card is a standard A-2.



I couldn't resist putting the nuts inside. 

I hope this gives you an idea of a simple and special card for one of the men in your life.  I am giving out blog candy on Tuesday, September 20th.  Just leave me a comment and I will put you in the drawing.  This week I'm giving away two ink pads from A Muse Studio.  The ink colors are Blackberry and Fern. 



Your next stop is LORI at Scrappin My Stress Away. 

Thanks for stopping by today.  Make sure you hit all the stops along the way to be qualified for Erica's blog candy.  If you get lost along the way, here is a complete list of stops.
