This weeks theme - chosen by Jocelyn - gives another reason to make a man's card. And lets face it we do sometimes need a little nudge to get those made.
Here is my effort which will be for my eldest son - in due course. You can guess what his game is!
The image is from 'Stitching Cards' and the background from MCS - World of Watercolour. I love doing stitching cards as the finished result always looks so much better than the printed pattern. It comes to life whilst you are stitching. I rubbed some ink around the edge of the white card to tone it down a bit. Added a gingham bow and a couple of my golfing charms and finished with a coloured peel off sentiment.
Now my apologies for my lack of comments on last weeks great entries. I was away for part of the week and a bit sore and sorry for myself when I got back. I promise to do better.
That stitched design is great Carol and the watercolour background behind it is perfect for it.
ReplyDeleteI think your son will be well pleased when he gets this.
