Our snow is finally going, even from the mountains, but much safer underfoot and driving.
Thanks to everyone who visited and left such lovely comments on my card for the CCC yesterday, you are very kind and I do appreciate it.
It's my lovely Son's birthday on Wednesday so I was out today to try and find a gift for him, and a Ferrari I can't afford. Coming so soon after Christmas I always have this problem, I have the same problem with Moreen as her birthday is a fortnight later. Anyway, I ended up with a really good bottle of Port, which I know he will appreciate, and it's sort of in-keeping with the card I've made;
I'm pretty pleased with my efforts, I hope he will be too.
It's an earlier dinner for us tonight as it's music night for both of us, so off now to peel some spuds, Alistair is away for a walk over the Kessock Bridge, peeling is usually his job. so till next time, keep warm and see you soon,

It's a great card Kate and I'm sure Damien will appreciate the sentiment too. We always treat ourselves to a good bottle of port for Christmas. Just perfect on a cosy winter's night indoors. I'm sure he will love it. Barbxx

Hi Kate,
what a very super card for your Son by the Happy Birthday for tomorrow.
Love the bottle of beer and that paper used it's super for the men in our lives.
I know what you mean aboutthese Birthdays it's my DIL on the 24th and then my Son's on the 3rd of Feb so they are nearly within a week of each other.
Still pondering on my Son's one DIL has been sent as they live right out in the country on a farm.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
Beautiful male card, Kate. I love it!!!!!! Kisses, my friend.
You have every reason to be pleased with this card Kate - the perfect "guy" card.

Such a great masculine card Kate. Love the background and the beer bottles. The sentiment is just perfect too. Our snow is almost gone now, just an odd patch left, thank goodness.
Hugs Jennifer xx.
This is a wonderful card Kate and the bottles look so realistic and love the sentiment which goes perfectly. The brick embossing and the high rise buildings are great with it. It is always so difficult to find something interesting for a man but this ticks all the boxes. Hope you enjoyed your singing. We have started doing Faure's Requiem and the St. Mark's Passion by Charles Wood but don't have our concert until the end of April so lots of time to learn them. x
Greetings Kate, I hope your son had a fabulous birthday. Your card design and sentiment are perfect for your masculine card.
Hugs Diane
Hi Kate

I bet he will enjoy his special bottle of port too!!
Love Jules xx
Love your card, the background works perfectly with those fab bottles. Stay safe and warm x
WOW Kate I love your card. I love the colours you've used and the gold embossing of the labels is just enough to make them pop off the page and look like you could just help yourself. Thank you so much for sharing and letting me know. Thanks too for your purchase from my Stampin' Up! shop. Big hugs Zoe xx
Great idea for a card and has given me an idea too. hope you enjoy the music night. Hugs Mrs A.
Fantastic male card inspiration Kate, and perfect to go with the port,
We got off lightly with the snow this time, just a covering that was gone the following day

Hi Kate
Excellent male card and hopefully Damian had a splendid birthday.
He would only ground a Ferrari in all that snow so I think the port was a good idea lol!!!
