Paper Craft Crew Challenges #443

 Today's card was inspired by 1 challenge...

Paper Craft Crew Challenges // #PCC443 ...A sketch challenge!! This current challenge is a horizontal sketch.  I decided to use this sketch for creating a masculine card.  Once again I am working at using up designer papers and this sketch with all it's layers was perfect for helping me use up my stash.

Verse of the Day:

There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.    1 John 4:18 NIV  Courtesy of YouVersion
