Did you ever love a collection of paper so much, you actually thought about buying a second set? That's how I feel about Pink Paislee's new Queen Bee Collection. I think it's humorous that papers called Queen Bee are so perfect for masculine designs. I just don't think the market makes enough masculine designs.
The Queen Bee Collection has a simple two-color palette (various shades of yellow and grey) that include a light yellow solid, ledger paper, and a soft yellow polka dot that are subtle enough for stamping directly onto, as well as stripes and some floral designs that remind me of upholstery fabric I might have found in my great-grandfather's den. I used them with today's Challenge at the Jacksonbelle Embellishments Blog, which is a fabulous sketch (keyword JBE100).
I used one of my favorite masculine stamp sets ~ Geek is Chic by Artistic Outpost.

hahaha...so cute!

Yup, being so hopelessly addicted to paper, I actually have bought a second set of a particular collection before. Your card is fabulous... a wonderful guy card.
