Sweet Ian

This is the other card sample that I made up for Susan's(PSU_Mom) Guys and Dolls card kit swap. It has other items in it as well, but this is what I put together for inpiration. The DP is double sided so that will add to the choices the recipient has. The piece of ribbon used is fuzzy and I think it adds a nice masculine texture. Now I NEED to get these into the mail.

Hi Mary! I see you're up late too :D This is a great card! I like the velvet ribbon and brads in it. And Ian is looking VERY dapper in his suit. Love it! And congrats on your Girl card being featured on TGF blog today! Love seeing the girls on famous blogs. :D

Oh my gOSH!!! I just told Kel that she always has the perfect papers, but Mary you TOTALLY do too...I don't know how you do it (must be the auditions) but all your papers are always SO perfect for the each other and the image and the layout! This is Awesome...my fave part though is the sweater!! Dang you colored that to perfection! Can I have this card ;) LOL!! I know, no shame.

Lorie, I haven't been in many card kit swaps, but the ones I have been in a few gals had a sample to look at and I thought that was a nice touch.

Kadie...Sweet Ian will be on his way to you. Thatnks for the love ladies.
