I used Melanie Muenchinger's set called Pretty Patterns. This set has some wonderful images. The sentiment was from Hello Sunshine. I needed a birthday card for one of my son-in-laws and Melanie's set was perfect to make a masculine card.
Now you can pop on over to Kay's blog and see what she created. Remember to leave a comment as you hop along because on Tuesday morning (October 30), Stamp TV will randomly choose one of the comments from all the blogs and that person will receive a huge grab bag of fabulous Gina K. Designs Stamps!
Thank you for looking at my card, have a HAPPY stamping day.
