Mine's a Pint

It was my Dads birthday a couple of weeks ago and here is the card that I made him. I used to struggle soo much making cards for men, but I just find it soo easy with these new Wild Rose Studio images - that there looks EXACTLY like my dad! Its uncanny!!! Once I got my goodies together I really enjoyed making this. Wild Rose Studio make some gorgeous goodies perfect for mens cards. Both this image and the papers are made by them - I think their male images are just the right amount of cute that I enjoy using them, but are 'manly' enough to make a fab card!

I had soo much fun colouring his tummy in with my copics, trying to get him rounded enough to make it lifelike LOL!! The papers are Wild Rose Studio Man About Town and are the whole pad is scrummy, lots of lovely rich colours and manly patterns. I finished the card off with a sentiment cut from a Tim Holtz sizzlet alphabet, some sheer ribbon and some Die-namics stacking stars - my go to male embellishments! I remembered that my nesties perfectly border a craftwork cards mini message so I framed that in the bottom corner to match too.
