November 2013 Artful Delight Kit Inspiration - masculine card

So many of my smiles begin with you.

   Have you ever played with a card kit or a scrapbook kit?  There are quite a few great kit clubs available on the internet, but my personal favorite are those by Artful Delight.  In my opinion they are more versatile and less style-specific allowing me to create cards for almost any occasion or for either gender.  Each and every month there are two sketch challenges for a chance to win the next month's kit too.  The November sketch challenges closed last night, but you can still use them for personal inspiration.
  I took some liberties with the card sketch to create a masculine card.  Whenever I use a kit I tend to gravitate to polka dots and flowers, so every month I challenge myself to try to make a masculine card from the kit.
My husband's birthday is coming up on Dec. 2nd, and he will be 47 years young, just like me.  (Yep I'm a cougar....my husband is a whole 8 weeks younger than I!)

Happy Sunday!

Great masculine card! Some day, if I thin the herd enough, I'll do kits, but it's still tough to justify for me. Sigh.
