Masculine Valentine
















This is the sketch inspiration at Wee Memories this week and ,as  I need some masculine Valentine cards this was the perfect sketch for the job!! 



































This is my card , perfect for a man (also very quick to make).  The top strip of paper was a scrap from my basket, as was the handwritten paper which I have distressed with Tea Dye ink.  The hearts are a Hero Arts stamp set called Hearts Trio.

Hope you have had a good weekend, it was a glorious sunny but cold day here today,  I love days like that!
