Here is a card I made for my DH...just celebrated another birthday. I always feel pleased when I can create a decent masculine card...sometimes I struggle with that. I am adding this one to the challenge at CAS-ual Fridays. First I masked the side area with post it notes, sponged on two colours of Distress Inks then over stamped with the Grunge Me set from PTI. Lastly I used my Scor pal to score the lines on the sides, added twine and the sentiment rounded with my Corner Chomper.
Thanks for taking a look.
