Evening...

... hi all hope you are well.  Ooh all been a bit quiet here but I have been getting a couple of cards made - throughout the year I've got a few big birthdays for people and anniversaries so I'm trying to work on those at my own pace so I'm not panicking near the time.  I've also re-joined the gym as you know with crafting you dont really get a whole load of excercise so I'm trying to get fit and gain a bit of stamina - so that when I'm out on my bike with the boys I'm not huffing and puffing lol.

Anyhoo, onto a card - this is one I've made for my brother who's birthday is in February, not a big birthday for him but I do have a 70th and a 50th that month - gah!!!!


The image is a Mo image coloured with promarkers, die cut and distressed around the edge.  The papers I think are papermania from ages ago - matted onto kraft card   I have then added twine and some fishing flys and the tiniest bit of hessian I had - I'll need to try and find some more now!!

I would like to enter this into:

Totally Gorjuss - anything goes - manly
Incy Wincy - add texture
Crazy Challenge - cards for men
Dream Valley Challenges - men/boys
Polka Doodles & Studio 12- For the boys

Right I think thats me for tonight - I bought my hubby a homebrew kit for Christmas and its ready to drink tonight - hic!!

Thanks for looking

Ali

    Hi Ali, what a fab masculine card! Great image, papers and love the little fishing flies.

    Know just what you mean about getting fit - I'm puffing going up and down stairs! So I'm doing exercise DVDs at home - can't stand the gym!!!
