And here is my card for your inspiration:
I pulled out some scraps from my favorite masculine paper pack for this one. I recently realized that I don't have any "Just Because" masculine cards in my stash. So, I set out to remedy it right away! I love these balloon images and the sentiment is perfect for right now when we are supposed to be "social distancing". So, even friends that live nearby feel like they are miles away. I stenciled the circle with a cloud stencil and then added the sentiment. Then, I stamped the balloons, colored them, and fussy cut them before adding them to the card. I used foam tape on the largest balloon, a small piece of cardboard on the second balloon and adhered the smallest balloon directly to the card. This way they appear farther away the smaller the balloon. I finished everything off with some colorful enamel dots.
