Manny McFoy needs some masculine inspiration, outdoorsy, big and without any flowers or frills...to get the bigger picture, sidle on down to the tea party: MMTPT208~July 24, 2012~Manly Manny needs a diversion; to flowers he has an aversion by Ksnurse at Splitcoaststampers
Our cards this week are going to Sol, a nursing home resident who has little to cheer him up and to make matters worse is now quarantined because of a flu outbreak. Our hostess this week is Sheri aka Ksnurse.
Using Mary aka stampercamper's lovely layout as inspiration I stamped the Serenity image in Wasabi & Versamark, painted with spring green Pearl-Ex and colored with Copics. Added the funky brown trim, a strip of BG Oxford DP and the Serendipity sentiment. PT - still resting my punchin' hand!
Thank you all so much for looking. Thanks Mary for your wonderful inspiration today and always. Have a peaceful day.

There's so much to draw the eye into this - starting with the bold statement of the trim, and then the beautiful foliage and the paper. I'd decided I didn't need Oxford, but seeing this maybe I made a bad call!
