Review:
Great ideas for those hard cards!

I have been making cards for many years and always have a creativity problem when it comes to designing cards for men. I tend to feel that the masculine cards are more boring and plain with not many options for spicing them up.... enter this wonderful book. It provided many examples that can be copied or that may just jog your mind to come up with the perfect card for the perfect guy! The one ''draw back'' would be that the book is very much theme oriented - if you don''t know the man really well - and know his likes/dislikes/hobbies etc, the designs are very limited. But still a great book to have for the card enthusiast!
