One For the Boys

Another fabulous response to last week's challenge at Make My Monday,  we are always looking for cards for men, so here we are, your challenge if you accept it is - 'One For The Boys'. Now this can be for an old boy or a young boy, for really men are only boys in a larger body aren't they? I feel I can say this with authority being one of 8 females in a family with 15 (boys) men. I felt like having a messy afternoon, so made some backgrounds, from which I used this one for the card. Started as a white card, covered with several Distress inks, then splashed around with a few similar H2o's to add bling, I don't think the bling shows here. The stamp is a Butterfly Kisses - Nautical from Hobby Art, along with the sentiment, I was lucky to win these in a challenge last year. Have fun making your card, looking forward to visiting your blog and thanks to those who have visited me, it is always appreciated.
I am also entering my card into Cards for Men challenge #2 Transport- Sailing and clipper ships.
