Some sketches just intrigue me and no matter what I do I just can't stop thinking of creative possibilities! This was one of those kinds.... I made several attempts which did not work and more than once thought I would just forget about this one ! But I just couldn't!!... finally I came up with this design which I was quite happy with and was at last able to get on with the far more important things in life ......like washing and vacuuming ... (yeah right!!) LOL. It was intended to be another masculine card but when I asked my son if he thought it was suitable for a male he said- "Not with that bow on it!!" How can they be pleased???I should have put it on a darker background for the photo- sorry that the vanilla does not show up very well against my white craft table!
I can't believe I am using so much green lately-not like me at all! DSP is Garden Green Patterns Pack 11/ Cardstock-very vanilla/Ink Whisper White and Garden Green/Stamp set-Trendy trees/Twill tape (in a KNOT not a bow!) and assorted SU buttons which were a RAK from Lisa for my birthday last year- Thanks Lisa!

Fabulous job - no wonder you were pleased with it!
Isn't it annoying when housework gets in the way?????
xXx
I know what you mean. I saw this sketch and HAD to give it a try. It's so interesting. I love trees, and green and twill so this is right up my alley. And I don't think it's girly at all. Well... what are you going to do about boys. I used to send my nephew a card once a month just to let him know I was thinking about him. My sister said that one time he opened one and said "what am I supposed to do with this?". You can bet that was the last non-birthday card I ever sent him.
That is a a lovely card Robyn - I think it could be sent to a male - maybe not your son! but that is not what I call ribbon which makes it suitable!!!!
Have a great week-end.
