When I saw Julia's challenge this morning I thought of a manly type card.. Thanks Julia for another great challenge.
This is the soon to be released sets Antique Map and A Guiding Light. The background stamp is the Antique Map. I colored it in with copics. Cut it into 4 squares and did lots of distressing. The sentiment is from A Guiding Light. This set has amazing sentiments, a lighthouse, a message in a bottle and a fantastic ship..
These sets are being released tonight over at Flourishes.. Come join the fun tonight in the SCS member forums at 9 p.m. Central time for our party..

Oh, Dawn, your card is awesome!!! I love all of the distressing you did. I need to practice that technique. That stamp set is wonderful too. I really like the sentiment. The sailor knots are cool and make a nice touch.
