Swap card May 2015

Good morning everyone, just a quick post today as the days seem to be flying by and I'm being kept busy with family life, DT work and commissions.
I belong to a little swap group on Facebook and we exchange cards once a month. This month the theme is "Cards for Men" and this is the card I made and sent to my swap partner.

I started with a 6"x 6" card base and matted and layered a gingham paper from Kraftyhands onto blue card. The brown paper is from the Country Gent Nitwit Collection paper pad by Lily of the Valley.


The super cute image is a printed postcard from Vintage Boys (set 1) from LOTV and I matted it onto blue card. The sentiment was computer generated.

I used an X-cut punch to create the stars and finished the card by tying twine around the brown panel. 
If you're in the UK and like to swap cards ask me to add you to our little group. You'd be more than welcome.
