Hello friends!
I hope you enjoyed your weekend and that this week is off to a wonderful start! Prayers for all those in the areas devastated by the terrible storms of last Friday here in the US!
I have been enjoying some "grandma" time so have not spent any time in my craft room, but I did want to share a masculine card I had made before I left, using Our Daily Bread Design's NEW sets Sweet Friendship (frame) and Faithful Friend (sentiment). My base is Mark's Finest Paper, and the dp is K&Co, and the corrugated I have had in my stash forevah! The frame due cut is Spellbinders. I used Memento ink and colored with copics. I added some fine twine from the jewelry dept of Hobby Lobby, and some Recollections brads to finish this real CAS layout off. It's so hard for me to keep it simple, and to make it masculine. Hopefully I achieved that with this one! LOL!
I am entering this in the following challenges:
Anything Goes Challenge - #62 Boyz to Men, Creative Craft Challenges - Boys Will Be Boys, Incy Wincy Designs - Something Old/New, Make it Monday - always Anything Goes, Paper Pretties -Going Green, Amusing Challenges - Die Cuts, Paper Sundaes - Green or Good Luck
Thanks so much for stopping by! My verse today was one I thought I'd share: "The Lord says, 'I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you". Ps 32:8 (NLT) What a precious promise! May He guide your pathways today!

Great verse, great colors, great layout = a great card! Thanks for playing along with my Amusing Challenges this week :)
Fabulous card! very classy and gentleman-ly.
Hi Grace~
This is a wonderful masculine card. I love the use of corrugated paper and twine with it! The frame in this set is so useful...it will be great for Thanksgiving cards...or people can hang grapes from it and make it an arbor. I love every Verse that came with this set.
The Verse that you shared at the bottom of your post, really was interesting. I woke up praying for that for the members of my family and myself of course.
