Nacho Average Challenge posted a sketch yesterday that THEY said was easy, but it looked pretty tricky in its simplicity. But then I had a great idea, and it turns out it was easy after all! And I managed to do it in the Dynamic Duo colors for the week, too! Ha!

To start this card, I looked at my really big stamps. The Tool Shed stamp jumped out at me right away. I realized that I could make a thank you note with it for my husband to send to some of the people who have been supporting his Kickstarter Project. It all came together from there. The gold embossing is a little hard to see on the Soft Suede cardstock, but in real life it looks subtle and elegant.
Stamps: Tool Shed, Wood Grain, Basic Label Single Stamp, Perfectly Penned
Ink: Soft Suede, VersaMark
Paper: Soft Suede, Crumb Cake
Other: Apothecary Accents Framelits, Gold Brads
Steve’s Kickstarter Project is at 51% with 11 days to go. He is trying to build a woodworking studio to honor his grandfather’s memory. Can you take 3 1/2 minutes to watch the video? Any help you can give would be amazing. Kickstarter is all or nothing, so every dollar counts. Thanks so much!












Perfect card for the purpose.
That really is a great card and so thoughtful of you – I’m crossing my fingers for him!
Great Masculine card! TFS
Gorgeous card! I love the gold embossing!
What a perfect card!! Fabulous use of this stamp!
Wonderful card for a man! Love the tool background with the woodgrain sentiment panel! Thanks for playing along with Dynamic Duos this week!
Good job with the challenges and with the finished card. It looks great!
Yapha, this is such a fabulous masculine card! The woodgrain behind the sentiment is just so perfect, too. Best of luck to your husband. Thank you so much for joining us this week at Dynamic Duos!
This is one of my favorite stamps. Perfect for those challenging masculine cards. Great job!
I think the stamp you selected is a perfect fit for both the challenge @ NAC and for your husbands project. And combining our challenge with the dynamic duo color challenge is prefect!
Thank you for playing along with us @ NAC. and the best of luck with the woodworking studio.
Great card! Love the colors you chose!!!
