Those of you who know me will be aware that I live with my husband and two sons, therefore a good number of my cards are male themed and as Father's Day in the UK falls in the middle of our challenge I have chosen Father's Day/Male - so anything you like as long as it is suitable for a man or boy.
I have used an image and papers from the Ooh La La Creations Boys to Men CD. I was inspired by a technique that I saw in one of Joanna Sheen's Cardmaking Collections and printed the image twice so that I could cut out a section and raise it up on foam pads.
The sentiment tags are LOTV and the ribbon and brad are from my stash.
