After much studying of the menu at the LSC Chinese Restaurant, I finally decided on this "meal"
Menu #1 - Neutral Image
Menu #2 - Greens/Browns
Menu #3 - Natural Fibers and Hardware
My image is from Gina K Design's Special Fathers. I just love the two clocks in that set. My DP is from Basic Grey's Archaic, which lends itself well to masculine cards. My hardware actually started out pewter; but because I had fudged a little with the gold mat paper, I had to emboss the frame with gold. The clock parts are also stamped on the gold paper and pieced over the image.
I used this week's sketch challenge for my layout, although I did add an additional element for the sentiment.

Lois, I love this image (even though there is no RED in it, or on the card! LOL!), and does it ever work for a masculine theme! Great job combining it with the sketch. I love the dp you used, and the placement of the hardware on an angle!!
