Happy Friday everyone! Do you struggle with masculine cards? If so, you are not alone. Buckle up, the tour is about to begin and today we will be making 2 stops. You are sure to be inspired to create something for the men in your life, whether they are 2 or 92!

Our first stop is a new set from the GM line called, “You Drive Me Crazy”.

Isn’t is chock full of retro fun?! The sentiments are a hoot! It instantly conjures up bright colors and images of drive-ins and soda fountains. Kristine created some fun samples for you. Here’s something groovy…

I love the colors she went with on this sample. Oh, and the houndstooth, how perfect!

Are the wheels turning yet?? They are sure to go into overdrive after our second stop,  the next train set from the B&O line called, “Silhouette Train”.

This set has so much to offer and as you will see, so many possibilities.

Jean used primary colors to create her own background paper on this card fit for the boys. Isn’t she so clever? I have a few nephews that would love this.

I have decided that Joanne is the Master of Masking! Check out this awesome black and white card…

One of my favorite images in the set is the conductor and the kids silhouette. Here is a card I made that isn’t so train themed…

This concludes our transportation tour today, please exit safely to the galleries to check out more great samples of You Drive Me Crazy and Silhouette Train .

We love to get feedback, so leave a comment and let us know what you think.

Blessings on your weekend!

    These new sets are just amazing! I’m going to have to wait till next week, but these babies are mine! I love vintage cars, and the retro images in the car set are just what I’ve wanted for so many purposes! The vintage train set is so beautiful…CHF is quickly becoming just about my top favorite! Thanks for continuing to come out with so many wonderful vintage sets–makes my heart flutter!

    I love the silhouette too! You could make it Christmassy too, just think The Polar Express!

    boy does the car ever bring back memories. My parents had a car just like that. Love the train too. My cousin works for the railroad and would be perfect for a card for him. Thanks for the samples.

    Now we are definitely going back in time with both of these sets; fortunately before my time. I have pictures of my grandfather in front of an Impala so that would be fun to digitize the photos and rescrape them with the set.
