Less is More...MASCULINE!

Oh I had chills go down my spine when I saw the title for this week's challenge at Less is More... MASCULINE!!

Sorry...good morning everyone!
It is a lovely day hear in Bolton again, so I will be out in the garden getting dirty today, then cooking dinner for my parents, who will hopefully be helping me in the garden! ;)

So the first thing I did this morning when I woke up, while my son was still asleep, was to check out the challenge at LIM. I was horrified, scared, full of trepidation when I saw what it was. I don't own any 'Man Stamps' or anything very male to be honest! Something I must remedy at the GNPE tomorrow!

Anyway, I had a root around and found a stamp set I forgot I had! And here is the result...


I am actually quite chuffed with myself! The stamps are called 'Just Chillin' by Making Memories. The sentiment is printed from my PC in Braddon font but I left space for 'awsome' which another stamp from the set.

I really hope you like this card and I really do plan to try and do a couple more over the week.
Thanks to Chrissie & Mandi for yet another 'trying' challenge! ;)

I will be at GNPE in Harrogate tomorrow so I'm not sure if I'll fit any card making in til Monday now...might see some of you there! :)

    From someone who has NO masculine stamps... you have done very well. It's surprising what you remember you have when push comes to shove!
    This is great Lizy and I love the hybrid sentiment!
    Have a great day tomorrow and enjoy the sunshine today!

    I had the same thought - help, no stamps suitable for masculine. Your card is great and that's a perfect image, well done. Hazel x

    great card, and its amazing what we can pull out of the hat when faced with a challenge - I recon there is always something new hiding at the back of the stamp drawer -
