Three Clover Thursday challenge



This weeks challenge is to make a card or project for Dad (or man), and use metal. Brads, hinges, or whatever.

My card today is made using a image from The Digi Shack. I combined that with some of my new Basic Grey paper, and added my metal (brads). I don't often make masculine cards, but when I do, I really enjoy doing them.



I am trying to use up my scraps and decorate the inside of my cards as well. I used a SU INK sentiment for the inside of the card. This card will be going to my dad. He owns a boat and loves the ocean, so this will be perfect.

This Digi image from Digi Shack is new and is a part of a digi pack. Great images and really cheap. You should check them out! I hope you have a wonderful Thursday and happy creating. If you feel like playing, head on over to Kerry's blog and play along!

Wonderful card and perfect for a boat owner. I love anything to do with the ocean even though I don't own a boat. Great DP too.
