This is the card I made for this week’s sketch challenge using the A Good Man Stamp Set. The strips of paper are the woodgrain patterns from the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper.
The sketch is from the Atlantic Hearts Weekly Sketch Challenge. They have great sketches which push me out of my comfort zone a little bit!
I love all the images in this stamp set. They are great for Father’s Day or any masculine card. I made this one a birthday card.
