Friends and For Men

Good Monday morning!  It's going to be a busy week on the old blog.  I've been quiet for some time as I managed all my summer tasks and prepared for my new job.  I have four days under my belt and am feeling really great about my job change.  Today's card is for the new Friends of Speedy TV challenge to make a masculine card.  I started off by creating the giraffe print background and then did a wee bit of stamping over the top.  I found that Versamark and black embossing powder stood out a bit better!  Some sponging and a couple of brads finishes off my card.
 
Let's not forget that Mark's  Finest Papers offers a free stamp set to one lucky participant.  Play along, won't you?
 
Thanks for stopping by!  You may want to come back by later today to see what else I have in store for you.
 
Details - Stamps: Wild & Free (MFP); Paper: Very Vanilla, Black Licorice; Ink: Versamark, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake; Accessories: Black embossing powder, black brads, sponge dauber, stampin' dimensionals.

What a background you have created and the simplicity of that tree makes a great masculine card. Your summer sounded crazily busy and I am glad the new job is going well.
