Card Swap Reveal

 Morning and time for the Card Chain Swap reveal  for August-26 cards were exchanged and I used the Tropical theme and I used the stamp from Sweet Poppy and foliage stamps from Pink Ink, all stamped onto an oxide smooched background, I also added a number strip from a kitchen roll insert.

My card went to Brenda in the UK.

For Men

 Morning and my second post today is for the ATG challenge at Love to Craft and I actually made a masculine card or should I say it practically made it's self lol, well I did emboss the background with a TH embossing folder on a piece of mirri card I found.

My son bought a new after shave and when I flattened the box found these images inside so cut them out and the for men off the front of the box and done.
