Happy Camper. I also like Nature Prints, but that's not in the current catty.

Lovely as a Tree - it's so versatile.

You can't go wrong with Lovely as a Tree. Then, depending on the male, I also like Noble Deer and Wild Fowl (retired).

My favorite is Yukon, then Schooner (both retired) and I'm really enjoying Winds of Grace.

I love Lovely as a Tree, Flannel Plaid background, and while I don't have it yet, the new set Winds of Grace would make nice cards too. It is on my list.

Crosshatch BG. That used with some of the darker colors really gives a masculine look!

I wish I could find the retired "fishin'" set that would be my favorite.

Connie- I agree!! It's the one set that I've been dying to get, but even on ebay, it goes for $30 or more!!

Thanks everyone for your ideas so far. They've been a lot of help!

Default Masculine Cards

I like the ones mentioned here. I use the fishin one, the lighthouses, the classic cars, All Aboard, tractor, trucks, Papa's pocket, golf. Not all men love sports so I also use masculin flowers - sunflowers, daisy,

Did you guys mean the "Angler" fishing set? My SIL, raestamps, has made some awesome cards with this set, even a funny "Godfather" movie spoof card. Here's one from her gallery....

I was "watching" one of these sets the other day on the 'bay, and it went for 70 bucks!!! Ouch! Surely those trout aren't worth THAT much, are they?!

I like Wildlife Reserve and Bronc Buster. You can't go wrong with a cowboy! Wanted is another great set.

I like Wildlife Reserve, too, but not as much as I loved the old Wildlife set, which I foolishly sold off years ago. I could kick myself now!

Now I like the new western sets and papers (don't forget that a lot of designer papers can work to set a masculine theme), any of the animal ones. Well, maybe not the Silly Sealife type. A lot of the backgrounds are good. There really are a lot, come to think of it!

Winds of Grace is my new favorite from this catalog. It is SO EASY to use--I've never had a card turn out bad with it!

But my all-time favorite that I will NEVER part with is Classic Pickups. I made some awesome cards with that if I do say so myself!!! And a scrapbook page I made with it was on the display boards at our 2007 National Convention.

I have had issues with finding masculine items as well. I just got loads of love, and hoping that can be used somewhat masculine. There was a computer related set that just retired that I am wishing I had ordered that would have been good as well. Any of the cowboyish ones I think will be good too. I have thought about some of the wilderness ones, but I just didnt like any of them well enough?

I would love to see SU! make some sort of set of generic masculine stamps. not necessarily an item, but just something that says "masculine" I dont even have any ideas, you know?

I love all my fishing sets, my Dad is a huge fisherman. I also have Papa's Pocket, Clasic Pick Ups, I use the fish from Tucon of My Love, The Bug sets are nice, Fire Brigade (spelling?), any sports set works out, Loads of Love, All Wraped up, Treat Yourself makes a great Coleman lantern card, and I forgot the new set's name but the fishing set with the man that has no face.

Noble Deer. It makes beautiful cards (but the guys in our family are probably getting sick of it!!)

There's some really great new cards with Lovely As a Tree in the catalog, if anyone wants more ideas for that classic!

I think just about every gal of mine has now ordered Noble Deer, LOL. They all just love it!

I also like to use All About U. It is very generic if your guy isn't into hunting or fishing.

All of these are retired, but I keep them just for the fact that they are "manly"!
Enjoy and I hope this helps out.

Another vote for Lovely as a Tree for all the reasons stated above. I have both the Classic Cars and Trucks that I use quite often. I also have the Back Nine if the guy is a golfer.

Of the current sets I would have to go with Lovely As a Tree or Noble Deer.

However, Celebrate Us works great also!

And nothin' beats a cowboy so Wanted and Bronc buster are great choices!
