It has been a while since I played along; and since I am still building up my masculine card supply, I thought this sketch was perfect for the idea I had. Plus I got to use some more of my new 'nesties". The background designer paper is an old news print which I thought went great with my "remember when" stamp.
Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a look. Hope you like my card

Very nice "manly" card. I really don't like to make them, can't use all the glitter, flowers and fancy things I like to put on cards. But cards for men are necessary..... The MMDesign Team thanks you for playing in our challenge this week.
