It's finally Friday! Yay! This has been a very long and busy week for me and I'm really looking forward to relaxing this weekend. All my shopping is done and I only have a few more gifts to wrap. I'm usually finishing up my wrapping on Christmas Eve so I'm way ahead of the game this year. Of course it didn't hurt that I let dear hubby do lots of the wrapping :-)
So my card today isn't a Christmas card ... I know, can you believe it? It felt so weird not to be reaching for some Christmas dp lol! I've had this cute little image for awhile now and I finally decided to get him inky. This stamp is Worried and you can find it at Funky Kits. I colored them with copics and colored pencils. If you follow my blog then you know I have a really hard time choosing embellishments for male cards. I think I'm always afraid I'm going to make them too 'girly' lol! So I opted for a few buttons and a diecut in the corner. A clean and simple look that lets the image be the focus.
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you have a fabulous day and a wonderful weekend!
Hugs, Anita

What a sweet, perfect card for a little man. I love how you managed to still embellish it yet not make it girly. I have the same trouble with cards for men/boys and can take inspiration from this card. LOVE the papers you used, and that image is so sweet and perfect colored. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Tuesday Alchemy!
