Well my Bestest's hubby is doing the London to Southend Bike Ride this June for the British Heart Foundation so I thought I would do him a Good Luck card.
The images are taken from MCS - Papercraft Library Volume 6 - Men-y Happy Returns. So after I had picked out the image and a frame, tile etc I printed them off 3 times and cut out the various parts as I wanted them. I then took a piece of White Pearl cardstock and folder into A5 card. I found an odd sheet of brown core-ordinations and embossed this with brick design (Tim Holtz embossing folder), sanded and cut to size. I then attached the design with DS tape where I wanted it on the embossed card and attached 4 eyelets and put some elastic though to look like it is being held on by that. This was then attached to the front of the card and the other layers applied with silicone.
Thanks for looking

I'm always on the lookout for great ideas for men's cards and this would be brilliant. The brickwork works really well with the image
