Relax!

Evening all, hope you are all ok on this chilly evening - brr!! The lovely Sarah over at Rainmacs place (check out her lovely blog and candy!) is a dt over at Cards for Men and I saw the challenge on her blog and decided to make a card for it (plus it is handy to have a mans card at the ready as I found out the other day when it was my boss's birthday and I had no idea until the day!!). So here is the card:

The image is one of my new stamps that I got from Little Claires at the Harrogate fair. I have paper pieced the hammock (ooh get me!) and coloured him with promarkers and added glossy accents to the pint. The papers are SU (again!) I am LOVING these papers. Now then, the only thing I 'm not sure about is the Brad - could I have your honest opinions please.

So I would like to enter it into the cards for men challenge - Happy Birthday.
and Ooh La La - Nothing floral
Thanks for looking xx
