The Crafter's Cafe Challenge 247 - Theme (Male)

For this week's challenge at The Crafter's Cafe, the theme is Male. I chose this great golfer's image at Bugaboo for my card this week and I know exactly who I am sending it to for his birthday!! (Sentiment is computer generated)

You can find the golfer here. I can't wait to see what you make for this week's challenge.

I am also entering this in the following challenges:

You Mean So Much to Me

I am in love with these flamingos and with this long and skinny card. I'm sending this to my aunt who recently got home from the hospital after a fall about a month ago. She had to quarantine for 14 days because of Covid and then had to go to rehab so she was glad to get home last week. I hope this cheers her up. Her son came from Chicago for a few days so her and I were able to do a zoom call and it was so good to "see" her and talk to her even though I can't see her in person.

Just Us Girls - Long and Skinny
Sunday Stamps - Bright and Beautiful
Inkspirational - Painting or Coloring

Relaxing .. with the sand between our toes

Allsorts - I spy with my little eye something begins with a "B" (BEACH)

The lobster in the upper right corner reminds me of what we did this week. We went to our very first food truck, called Cousins Maine Lobster. They came to the town next to us and I have been dying to try a lobster roll. They were on Shark Tank back in 2012 and they got a deal. They have 20 food trucks all over the US. (see our pics below)  It sure was yummy!!  I read where they took $20,000 and it became a $20 MILION dollar company. Holy cow!!
