Wednesday is here! Yahoo! That means another challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches! This week's hostess and sketch builder is the wonderful Rita Wright! She has come up with a fabulous sketch and I decided to go masculine with my card this week!
I used a set from Inspired by Stamping called "Ahoy Matey". I just love the images and the sentiments in this set! My card is very clean and simple with just a smidgen of sponging...I couldn't help it! I wanted it to look a little worn. The blue background is the Distressed Cuttlebug folder.
We hope that you will join Freshly Made Sketches this week! Please be sure to visit the other DT Members to see their wonderful creations!
Thanks for stopping by!!!

What a wonderful masculine card Leslie. I like the worn look you achieved!
ReplyDeleteLove the distressed and worn look of this card, Lesley! The smudging and folder you used are perfect for a manly Father's Day card along with that great hemp twine you used for the horizontal features. Hope you are having a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteWonderful man card, Lesley! I am so happy I finally bought myself a new computer...now I can get back to commenting!! lol
ReplyDeleteThis is a perfect masculine card Lesley ...I love the creative stamping on the front panel and of course there is nothing like twine/jute to add for a touch a masculinity! Awesome work!!!
