Evening all...
Remember me! Yes I know it's been what seems like a lifetime since I last blogged, I've really missed you guys. I have missed taking part in weekly challenges soooo much but I just haven't had the time in between work and wedding invites, there just hasn't been enough hours in the day.
But I wanted to share with you a card tonight which I'm entering into this weeks Less Is More Challenge. This week the challenge was to create something using a sketch.
I absolutely love this simplicity of this sketch - its so me!!
It just so happened to tie in with a Grandads Birthday - (I know I'm getting a bit keen on all these man cards!)
I chose Papertrey Ink's Garden Variety (I can't wait for my new Papertrey parcel to arrive this weekend :) I carefully inked the tools' handles in Classic Kraft and the metal parts in pale grey. I seem to have a thing for rounded corners at the minute- they seem to finish a card of nicely - something different from the norm! I finished the card off with a Pinefeather button, good old button twine and a double banner- layered slightly off to show a flash of green - the sentiment was stamped from fillable frames number 4 using dark chocolate ink!
So what do you think? I would love to hear what you all think!
Thank you very much for taking time to read my ramblings! I promise I won't leave it so long next time! :)
Take Care

Nice card, Kate, this layout lends itself so well for a "guy card". And the polka dots peeking out behind the banner are a nice touch!
