Card Making for Men - Quilled, No Frills
Designing cards for guys can be tricky, especially if you like to quill (usually flowers dominate the scene), so here's an idea for the next time a card is needed for any male/any occasion. Father's Day, birthday, graduation, retirement - just change the sentiment.
The quilling reminds me of a compass, fitting for all those events that lead one in a new direction. A stress-free way to line up coils for this design, as well as when making quilled snowflakes, is to assemble them on a clear, acrylic sheet placed overtop a sheet of graph paper.

My pattern is in the May issue of CardMaker Magazine along with lots more card making techniques. I have an extra copy and would love to send it to a lucky reader. To enter, leave a comment by the end of Monday, May 24 [edit: the giveaway has ended] and I'll select a winner at random the next day.
