Playing with a Theme and Sketch

Morning, time for another new challenge from Cardz4Guyz. This time our theme for your masculine makes is:-

GRATEFUL, THANKFUL, BLESSED

Here's my card using a few bits I had hanging around!

I'd been playing around with the theme for quite awhile but was spurred into action when I saw the sketch over at The Paper Players, regular visitors know I love a sketch!

I found some old hessian scraps in my drawer, which I cut to fit diagonally across my card base before adding my central panel of die cut and then embossed Kraft panels over white. I did notice that my memory of the sketch was slightly off the actual after I'd glued the hessian strip down, hope that's OK! 

The scrunched up leaf I die cut from some Brusho covered card for another project and never used but I pimped it up by adding some Inka gold wax. The gold embossed sentiment was stamped with a Sugar Pea sentiment onto a die cut white panel. As this is a masculine card, I didn't feel the need to add extras and kept it pretty CAS.

That's it from me but be sure to check out the rest of the team here.
