Glad you were able to find so many patterned papers from your ever growing stash for this challenge, they they are all so complementary of each other and the silhouette was a good choice for the focal point.

ReplyDeleteYour masculine card has such strong presence with the moody blues and bold stripes setting the stage for the silhouette figure, and the sketch works perfectly with your paper strips while the clean sentiment and balanced layout give the whole design a sleek modern look.
ReplyDeleteCompletely stylish indeed, I find masculine makes so difficult to think of, I'm loving the bold stripes too. The sentiment is fab!! I did try and comment @ Sparkles but I could find the link so just had to come find you. Thank you for the inspiration Carol.
