The base of the card is made from DCWV Cardstack in Clove (that implies its green to me. Â…or is that meÂ…but itÂ’s a lovely brown) . There are actually 8 layers to this card, a combination of K&Company Maison range of designer papers and matt card stock in creams and browns. I used 4 brads from Making Memories to anchor some of the layers down. The image is from Ibrakeforstamps, which I stamped using Adirondack Pitch Black ink, coloured with Prismacolor pencils, blended with white spirit, and the whole card is chalked with chalks from Pebbles Inc. http://montysmumscraftretreat.blogspot.com/

This card is a RIOT!!! I love it! I would give this card to my DH...but he is only 37...acts like a 'grumpy old man' sometime though...Love the gamsol technique.

He is great, love the colors and the layering...he is the first male stamp I have seen like this, there are plenty of women with coffee, but I have all men in lives, husband, father, sons, bil, and it is hard to find male stamps. I might have to check out this company after viewing your lovely work.
