This is what I came up with, I found a digi stamp of an old fashioned rugby ball, I coloured it using Promakers in Cocoa, Caramel and Satin. For the background I tore some sections from an old book and used chalk and ink to distress the edges. I cut the frame from some thick gold card using a Nellie Snellen frame die. I used parcel twine and an old brass coloured button from my stash to finish off.
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
The Crafty Pad - "Goodbye Summer"
One Stitch at a Time - "Anything Goes"
Totally Stampalicious - "Anything Goes"
Catch the Bug - "Let's get Punchy"
Totally Gorgeous - "It's a Man Thing"
Emerald Faeries - "Buttons"
Cute Card Thursday - "At The Office" I used parcel twine
Sarah Hurley's - "Recycle" I used parcel twine, old book pages & an old button

Awesome "man" card!!! I love all the details of your card - thanks for joining us at Totally Stampalicious this week :)
I stumbled upon your page looking for a rugby digi stamp, it's daft I already have a wooden stamp - just being lazy and thought looking on line would be quicker! it's not lol! that will teach me! but just wanted to say your card is wonderful and inspirational. I shall just go get the wooden one now and stop wasting time! I hate doing men's cards!!!
Thank you, a new fan!
