His and Hers, Let's Get Hopping Round #6

It's all about romance this month with Valentines just around the corner.  What says 'couple in love' more than a 'his and hers' set?  Today the Let's Get Hopping team are having a bit of fun with this theme and featuring two cards, both using the same layout - one for him and one for her!

I hear it time and time again from fellow cardmakers, male cards are tricky to design.  But I have a design tip for you to try.  Make a card in your favourite style, then CASE it with a more masculine twist.

I am just smitten with how this feminine design, featuring the Butterfly Basics stamp set, turned out.  

For the masculine version I chose one of my favourite birthday stamp sets, Confetti Celebration.  I kept the sketch and the colours mostly the same, just making little adjustments to better suit the different genders.
