It is Father's Day on Sunday so it is only fitting that I share a masculine card - I don't make them often enough but am trying to change that!
I have used the Darkroom Door Old Trick Photo Stamp
The sentiment has been cut out with the Spellbinders Grommet Tags Shapeabilities and attached with old gold brads. The Die has been cut using the Spellbinders Grand Calibur.
The background paper is from an old book - they make the best patterned paper and we all have them lying around - a great way to recycle!
This card is for the following challenges:
Paper Shelter Challenge - layers on layers
Simon Says Stamp - anything goes
Stars and Stamps Midweek Throwdown - masculine
Shopping Our Stash - Use Your Favourite Things (Dies)
Through The Craft Room Door - Diva or Anything Goes
Hooked on Crafts - Cards for Men
House of Gilli - Your Favourite Colour Combo
Make it Monday - always Anything Goes
The Crazy Challenge - Anything Goes
Totally Stampalicious - Anything Goes
Catered Crop - Distress
The Squirrel & the Fox - One for the Men
