Such a beautiful card, Connie. 'Tis perfect for a male; actually everybody, really. Those border leaves are fabulous. Love the printed botanical background, too.

This is such a warm and thoughtful project, Connie. The autumn colors and textures sound beautiful, and the little details like the faux aged tape and crystal glaze make it feel so personal. A lovely way to celebrate a friend.

Love this card with all the details. And I like the butterfly too, because they also fly in autumn.

I love it all over, Connie! A beautiful fall collage, perfect for a guy or a nature-loving girl like me. The leaf border is so pretty with the shading. I still have a lot of Die-namites dies. Just used one yesterday, in fact. Love your berries and the aged faux tape. Wonderful!

I love the background as much as the foreground. It's beautiful.

The layering and textures in this collage are beautifully orchestrated, with the maple leaf border adding such a rich seasonal frame. The aged tape and glazed berries bring depth and warmth, while the butterfly and twine offer a lovely touch of movement. A thoughtful and masculine design that still feels universally inviting.
