A Birthday Card for the 'Fix it Man'

I did say in an earlier post I was going to play again with the

Sketch Challenge over at

Always Playing with Paper

and decided to go with a Male Theme.

 

 

 I have had these tool dies from Marianne Designs

for ages and hadn't yet used them so I thought

they would be perfect for this Sketch.

I used red & orange card stock for my

base and matting - also using the orange for

a few of the tools.

I inked them all to give a worn look and

included the silver embossing and the

DP from Farmhouse Paper Co.

I just love the shoe marks - a great touch I thought.

The sentiment is from Inspired by Stamping.

 

 

I really enjoyed getting away from girly cards.

We never seem to have many male cards in our stash

so this is one to add to my collection.

Hubby's birthday is a little way off so this will

come in handy when that time comes.

 

Thanks for dropping in.
