This card was made for the Twisted Sister challenge given by Pat Smethers. We were to make a Father's Day card, have some distressing and use a MANLY metal piece.
I love this set from Flourishes. I paper pieced the couch and the wall, drew in the floor. The picture and the shoes are popped up. I distressed the edges of the brown frame.
Anyone can play in this challenge. Just put TSC0514 in the keywords. Join in the fun!
What do you think?

Super nice masculine card. I love the shoes sitting there with an empty recliner. That is exactly what it looks like when my hubby decides to go to bed. Ugh, excuse me, you forgot your shoes. I like how you drew in the wood floor.
