Lovely as a Tree

Finally, this weekend (long weekend here in Australia for Australia Day celebrations) I get to sit down and make some cards.  First one on display is my attempt at a man’s card.  I hate making masculine cards, but I was inspired today from a card in this month’s “Creative Cardmaking 2009 Annual” magazine.  This is my take on a card on Page 22.

All products used as from Stampin’ Up unless otherwise stated

Stamps: Lovely as a Tree, Paisley

Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Choc Chip, Brocade Blue, Basic Black

Hope you like it.  More to come soon.

Cheers,
