Cardz 4 Guyz #285 // Shopping Our Stash #459 // Retro Rubber #172

 3 challenges inspired today's card...


Cardz 4 Guyz // #c4g285 ...A masculine challenge using "shades of brown"!!  With Valentine's Day just a few months away decided to get started on my stash.  I think these "shades of brown" worked perfectly for the new challenge that starts today over at Cardz 4 Guyz...we hope you will come play along with us!!
Shades of Brown

Shopping Our Stash // #SOS459 ...A triple threat challenge!! A trio of something needs to be added to your card.  I have a trio of wooden hearts as well as a trio of panels on my card. I doubled the triple threat!!  The hearts have been in my stash for a long time...picked them up at a wood crafting shop in TN while on vacation. 


Retro Rubber // #rrcb172 
...A sketch challenge!!  Along with the sketch we are suppose to use a stamp set that is over a year old.  The Valentine's sentiment has been in my stash for over 7 years.  The wooden hearts have been in my stash for over 10 years.


Verse of the Day:

Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.

  3. Well, this is one beautiful card for Valentine's Day, I love it, it's rustic, the beautiful shades of brown and those little wooden hearts are the perfect combination for a very stylish masculine card. I love the way you tied the twine on the hearts, especially the one with the little one inside the big one, it's a very sweet detail.
