Dotty about men!

Today I have at last managed to make a couple of much needed male cards. I don't make as many male cards so am running very low on them!
Today I made a visit to the craft shop and treated myself to a few items, one of which was a "Daisy & Dandelion" teddy fishing stamp. Hopefully this will give me the incentive to make a few more male cards!
I also brought a few more reels of Grosgrain ribbon to go on my new ribbon rack, some textured snow paste(for my Xmas cards). The snakeskin Cuttlebug embossing folder also jumped into my basket!
Back to today's post. These cards are also my entry for the "creative inspirations" challenge blog,the theme this week is dots & circles. I thought Footballer Edwin would be perfect along with the Swiss dots embossing folder!
Recipe:
  • Edwin coloured with promarkers
  • DCWV paper
  • CB embossed coredinations card stock
  • Papermania adhesive pearls
  • stamped PB greeting
  • Fiskars border stamp

Hope you are having a great week, I am off to the craft shed to try out my new goodies!

Oooh! Sounds like you had a very nice shopping spree! I love it when things jump into my cart! Your card is adorable! The Pile it On challenge this week was to make a masculine card for a boy or a man - you should run over and enter this there!!! Great job! Glad you had fun filling up your wonderful ribbon racks!
