Oh No Not Another Boy Card!

There are some cards that I need to make and I immediately

get intimidated! Sympathy cards and masculine cards

are two of them! At least this is only one of those two!

I only fell mostly apart instead of all the way!

After I slapped myself silly (That was not a long trip lol)

I pulled it together and it actually came together quite

nicely!  This is for a friend of ours that had 

open heart surgery a couple of weeks ago.

As you already know receive a lot of inspiration from

Andrea Ewen! I love her work and often like to try some

of her awesome techniques.  I figured I may be annoying her

by always copying her, so a few weeks ago 

 I started practicing some medallions using some of my 

other punches.  And I thought I was coming up with

 something different. She recently used this one, so it may seem as if I am

copying her yet again! Sorry Andrea, I was trying to go 

a little different! I do love your work!
