rock star (pixie) birthday

one of my favorite challenges to myself in the last few months has been to try and make one full-on "guy card" from each of my pixie dust paperie kits. i did it last month; i did it in december; admittedly, november's was holiday themed, but still quite masculine. however, when i first saw this month's FLORIBUNDA KIT --full of soft feminine papers, elegant embellishments, and flowery goodness--i confess i was not entirely sure i could pull it off. luckily, i was WRONG:



it turns out that bright colors, some dymo labels, the judicious application of ink, and some hardcore stitching were all i needed. woohoo! more deets on the pixie blog...where guy cards ♥ROCK♥! :)
