I was finally able to do a MFT sketch challenge, but now can't figure out how to link it. I can't find the challenge now for this sketch. Oh well, better luck next time I guess.
I've been dying to use this SU Open Sea stamp set. My DH is retired Navy, so thought it was perfect for him. He did, however, remind me he retired from the Navy 2 years ago. LOL! But, he still works government contracting with ships, so it's still a go.
Anyway, I wish you could see the sketch I used, but I did use SU Well Worn DSP layers, stamped a b/g behind the ship, added thread, brads, corner punch and a few other details.
I hope you like what I came up with. I have had 4 masculine cards to make this month. One more left for my anniversary. It's always 2 cards in January for my DH for b/day and anniversary.
Thanks for taking a look!

Pam - this is STUNNING in a most masculine and handsome way!! I love the colors - and the way you used your linen thread to accent the brads/dots. You always make the best guy-cards - thank you for the inspiration on these!
Hugs!
