Happy Happy HAPPY Birthday Let’s Celebrate Times 50!

Do you like a ‘funny’ card? For me, this is always one of my ‘go to’ options when I am

making a masculine card design. And when I saw this sentiment when searching the world wide web I just couldn’t go past it. Do you struggle with masculine card designs? Scroll down, to find out how you can get my Freebie at the next Summit which will give you all the tools you need to confidently create Cards for Men! AND don’t forget to sign up for the GIVEAWAYS too!

But first, I’d like to know if you ever add a funny sentiment to a card, and if so where do you find them?

Therese Calvird - Funny Men's 50th Birthday card (1)

I added the sentiment using die cuts from the Classic Block Numbers set and the Letterboard Die Set.

PRO TIP: It’s easy to personalise a card, this is for a guy who has a new dog and I knew the Katzelkraft’s Dog set would be the perfect fit.

And then I thought, where is the party without a ‘hat and balloons’ 🤣 so I grabbed some from the Party Time stamp set. Check your stash, as you may have similar stamps and dies which could work for this.


You may have heard that I am presenting at the next Card Maker Success Summit and I thought I should make this one all about the Men.

  1. The first 60 were pretty great for me, Therese! SO fun, and bet it was well received, too!
    Yes, I do – but keep them to the inside especially for the ‘zingers!’
    =]

  2. Love this fun card! Yes, I like humour especially on masculine cards. They don’t generally like soppy cards as much.

  3. Wonderful birthday card! I showed it to my card and he chucked right away! The hat and balloons definitely are fun elements! TFSharing, Therese!

  4. Anniversary card….”Are you two still together?” (then on the Inside) “It MUST be love!”

  5. OMG, Therese! I have NEVER done that many die cut letters for a sentiment. That personalized sentiment is IMPRESSIVE! You lined them up perfectly! How long did it take you?
    I bow down to your creativity, proficiency and patience! This is “da bomb” 🙂

    1. The funniest thing is that I originally die cut the slightly larger version of letters for the sentiment… but didn’t like it sooo big, so I had to start again lol. It wasn’t difficult to line up and it didn’t take as long as I thought it would, maybe 10 minutes!

  6. Such an adorable card! I can’t wait to see what you have planned for us at the Summit! You are the best!!

  7. This is an awesome card! Great job! I never thought about just cutting individual letters to make up my own sentiment.
    Most companies have a stamp set or two with some some humor, but I love the snarkiness of almost all the Ink Road Stamps!

  8. Love everything about this card – the sentiment is hilarious and the dog is adorable!

  9. Your suggestions for upcoming tutorials sound great to me. Anything you do interests me.

  10. This card made me smile not only a fantastic and true sentiment but your dog is just fabulous and so beautifully coloured. So sorry to have missed the summit but getting our new shop ready is taking so much time hence the lack of commenting.
