Antique little boys

Evening all, ive just put kiddlywinks to bed so I have a minute to post this card I finished for my father in law, this one is from the girls. The cheeky image and sentiment are from the Crafters companion swalk 2 collection. I've coloured him in with my promarkers and matted and layered with paper called moments in time (it came with some Joanna sheen stamps). I used a Martha Stewart edge punch and then made the rosette with matchin paper and a scoreboard.

I really must admit (having had to make two in the past two days) CAS men's cards are definitely not my style!

I'm off now to make a start on my Christmas cards with my new sugar Nellie stamps - yum!

As always thanks for looking
