I am the Hostess this week for the
WORD CHALLENGE at JUST US GIRLS
and I chose MASCULINE.
All too often we get carried away making 'Girly' cards
so this week it is the Male's Turn.
***
I have a girlfriend who is forever looking out for crafty items
for me and most of what is on this card is thanks to her.
***
The background stamp is from Urban Stamps - Cogs
Inked in several colours from Memento
I also got the metal cogs and inked a few of them
on the background.
I was given a bunch of different types of metal cogs
so worked perfectly for my Son in Law
as he was in the middle of restoring an old car -
hence I thought he could do with a few spare parts
The sentiment is from Inspired by Stamping -
Chalkboard Birthday.

Hope I got to you with this challenge and
you get your male card stash updated.
