It's a Man's World

This is my entry for the Joanna Sheen Challenge - Its' a Man's World.  I don't know about you, but I find doing men's card's a total pain.  They don't like pretty flowers or teddies or fairies - boring!  Even worse when I get an order saying 'he likes sport', no help at all!

I know the image is of a boy, but lets face it, men never really grow up do they.  Apologies to all the male crafters out there, no offence meant and I am sure you are all very grown up and mature gentlemen!

Think I'd better shut up and show you the card:

This is definitely not one of my 'best' creations but really struggled with this one.  I think the papers are a bit too over powering - never mind!

Stamp is Paper Nation - Schoolboy coloured in Promarkers.

Papers : Papermania It's a Man's World.

Gems, ribbon and silver card are all from stash.

You do make me laugh, you are so right about men and growing up, ha ha, guess they are all still hanging on to the inner child! Great card hun, love that little chap with his frog, so full of mischief and a "who? me?" expression. Sxxx

I think the papers are fine... the first thing I saw was the image, so they can't have overwhelmed it too much, at least in the photo. Love the colors and those papers are perfect for a boy card! =)
