Trees

It's still so quiet here today ...  :) Yesterday hubby was all day at the parish, cooking for a fundraiser pizza and pasta night which he and the volunteers organised for the church here, and today he and our little boy are still there, as it was combined with a sleep-over for the altar kids! So today it's just me and my older son here ... but he has decided to go join them for the rest of the day  ...... mmmm  love it   :) 

Anyways, today I have a Christmas card to show you and it is my DT card for the new Challenge at OSAAT. Our theme this week is ... FOR THE BOYS. 

I got to play with this beautiful Trees stamp from Gingerloft to do my card and seeing its a male theme, I kept my card quite simple, adding embossing which I love so so so much, and a simple peel-off sentiment, which I coloured black with my promarkers... So another Christmas card ready.. . yay   :)

This week we are sponsored by the fabulous Joanna Sheen store and the lucky winner will win a Gbp10 voucher to spend in the store.



I am entering my card in these challenges today.

- PaperPlay Challenge 11 - EMBOSSING
- Digi Doodle Shop's Best 51 - ANYTHING GOES
- Magical Monday - MONOCHROME

Thanks for looking.

    Hi Dora,
    This is a really pretty card, I actually think that for a guy it would be fine without the beautiful bow!
